I'm Giving Thanks

 http://southbreezefarm.blogspot.com/2009/10/get-ready.html


Here we are again at the beginning of November, eagerly anticipating the holidays and looking with not a small amount of horror at how quickly the past year has flown by. For the past few years I have participated in a challenge hosted by Leah at South Breeze Farm that has been such a reality check for me. The idea is to create a list in your sidebar, and each day add a new thing that you thankful for throughout the month of November.

It's amazing how easy it is to see your blessings when you take a minute to think about it. From the small to the large, everyone has something for which they can be thankful. I posted my lists here and here from previous years if you are interested, and I hope that you will go to Leah's blog, grab the button and jump in feet first with a thankful heart!

For all of you Facebookers, this works for you too. Just update your status each day with something for which you are thankful. God has blessed me so richly that my heart overflows with thanksgiving for who He is, and for what He has done for me!

I appreciate the reminder, too! Let's start off the holiday season with a joyful heart. . . And try to keep it that way ;-)

Thanks for joining me AGAIN this year. Can't believe this is year three already, can you? May you be reminded of many blessings this month!
