Let's All Give Thanks!

I wanted to take a moment to give thanks to my Father in Heaven for the amazing technology he has given us to be able to share our thoughts and our experiences with our family and friends through this blog site. I feel that we all need to take the time to give thanks for all the many things we have been blessed with that enrich our lives in endless ways every day.
My incredibly wonderful husband, Steve came up with the most creative, yet simple idea to help our family remember to give thanks each day for what we have been given. He made a 'Thankful Jar' out of a large plastic container that used to be full of pretzels. Now it's full of thanksgiving. Each day each member of our family (the ones who know how to write) drops into the jar a piece of paper on which they've written something they're thankful for. We're all having great fun doing it and we remind each other to be thankful every day. Katie and Steven are enjoying it, I think they are anyway. If they miss a day, they make up for it the next day by dropping into the jar two things that they're thankful for. I'm very proud of them for keeping it up and I'm extremely proud of Steve for coming up with the idea. Thanks Honey, I love you! : )
So I hope that by posting this blog I've inspired you all to give thanks for all the little things that enrich your lives each day along with the Mills' crew.
