Thankful Thursday

Join us today for Thankful Thursday at Women Taking a Stand.

Today I am thankful for....
~ my husband.  He is just wonderful and I'm thankful for our love and friendship and how he makes me smile (even those times when I feel like I don't want to smile!).

~ my son sharing stories from school where he showed self-control in a situation.  I was glad he made a good choice! 

~  suppers that turn out tasting like my Mom's always make me smile!  This week I made chicken fried steak and it looked and tasted like hers.  Then last night we had chicken and rice.  I've made it often and it is always a little something missing.  Yesterday it was just right! 

~ the rain as well as the sunshine after the rain.

~ having medical insurance.  When I look at the benefits statements and see the costs of medication, doctor visits, and tests, I'm thankful we just have to pay the copay.

"Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful." Colossians 3:15

Also, I'd like to invite you to read my review that was posted yesterday on the book Six Ways to Keep the "Good" in your Boy by Dannah Gresh if you have boys!   EXCELLENT book!

Have a day of blessings!

So many wonderful blessings and yes, medical insurance is such a blessing and so many don't have any at all. Thank you so much for sharing. You are indeed a blessed woman :) Have a wonderful weekend!

I am also thankful for my husband, and wonderful medical insurance.

These are all such wonderful things to be thankful for Bethany! I certainly agree with being thankful medical insurance and only having to pay the co-pays. I did check out the book review and will suggest it to my daughter...our grandson is only 3, but he will grow up quickly. Sounds like a great book!

It is funny how we keep trying mom's recipes, but something is always missing :) - I am glad that you got it just right yesterday :)

The book really sounds great; as I said yesterday, wish I had it when our son was that age.

Thank you for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.

Love & peace,
