A Thousand Thanks

I have recently been challenged to live a life with more gratitude.  I am reading a book called "One Thousand Gifts" by Ann Voskamp.  It is a dare to live fully right where you are at.  It is a challenge to make a list of the thousand little things to be thankful for.  More than the lists though, it's about abandoning yourself to the God who overflows our cups.   Here's my list that I will add to often and here I am challenged to live  with a heart of gratitude.  I am so very thankful for....

1.  My husband.  He is a great man and I am blessed to have him in my life.
2.  My 3 precious children.
3.  A house that is small and easy to clean.
4.  the way God has provided us with 2 working vehicles to drive.
5. the countless ways that God has provided for our family over the last year-there are many.
6. The way my husband makes me laugh.
7. Having two legs that allow me to run, to exercise.
8. For health.
