My favorite attitude....Thankfulness




This month seems to be full of favorite things....Thankfulness is one of my favorite attitudes. All other really great attitudes seem to follow thankfulness: joy, love, kindness, etc. I've found that the more I show gratitude, it begins to rub off on my family! Here are a few things I'm especially thankful for:

An instant, on-call babysitter Nanny who's heartstrings are all entwined around my twins! A mother that lets me vent....anything....and still loves me. Little voices that say "mommy" full of love and sweetness. A husband that can truly be trusted in a population increasing in trashy women. A curly haired Bible quizzer that says she doesn't want to quiz...but loves to win! The grace and favor of God....who could want more?

Grace is the God-given ability to rise above or turn away from wrong, Mercy is the power of God to release and forgive us from wrong. Thankfulness is the result of knowing and understanding these things....
