Today I'm Thankful For...

My family...

I'm thankful that I am blessed with parents who not only put food on the table for me & buy clothes for me. But also who take time from their life to spend in my life.

For my siblings who call me everyday or ask to call me. Who ask me a month before Christmas what do I want, who spend their time to clean my room, cook my favorite meals, or give me leaves. All because they love me.

My life(style)...

I enjoy working with goats & I am very grateful for the changes that were made in my life over six years ago, that changed my ideas on what I liked & how I wanted to live. I'm grateful that my parents moved us out & bought goats so I could enjoy goat's milk (which I don't drink), goat's cheese (which I LOVE), and the goats them self.

I'm thankful for the opportunity to work in Farmer's Markets either here in New York, esp back kin Houston. I am thankful for the friend's that I've made in the markets & the experience that I've had while working there.

I'm thankful for a sound church in which I can worship with other people who believe the same way. As well as being able to live in a country where I can worship when & where I want to without being told by anyone when, where, & who I should worship.

In my short 22 years I have been GREATLY blessed, but I've also had some trials & believe it or not I'm thankful for those trials & tribulations, as they have helped to shape me to be who I am & taught me many, many, MANY different things over the years.

Aww, how cute - on a serious note, remember this when you are feeling discontent.

Your "Aww, how cute" makes me feel like a 12. lol (Something I should be used to by now).

True, I should do that. I should take a page from your book & go back & read all my posts, maybe it'll remind me of old lessons learned (and sadly forgotten) and hopefully give me ideas for new posts.
