Thankful

To remind ourselves to be thankful, we spent most of November creating a garland of "Thankfulness Rings." Each night at dinner, we would talk about what we were thankful for, write it on the ring, and add it to the chain. Looking at the world through the eyes of a child is a wonderful way to remember that we should be thankful for all the little things. Nothing should be taken for granted. In no way is our list exhaustive, but here is what our family is thankful for (in no particular order):
