Yeah, yeah, I know Thanksgiving was last week but I've been so focused on getting things ready for Brynne and what I "NEED", that I really haven't taken the time to be thankful for what I already have. It's been on my heart for a little while and I know that I've been asking for so much that God finally said, "Maggie, you need to thank Me for what you HAVE." So here's my Thanksgiving resolution...to post at least one thing/person/event etc. that I'm thankful for EVERYDAY. Yep...everyday. I should've started on Thanksgiving so today's list will be a little longer...

1. the fact that we can afford to heat/cool our house even if I'm burning up & everyone else is freezing
2. Craig has a consistent job, that's in town, even if he did have to work part of the day on a holiday
3. Friends & family to spend the day with even if it gets crazy & loud
4. Sharron
