500 Comments Second Anniversary 5 Love Its
in Christian Weddings
It's been a rough few weeks for me and for a few other knotties as well.  For me it's hard to think of what I'm thankful for when things are rough.  I've been thinking of this all day.  I'm thankful for:

my FIL.  I married into a wonderful family, and FIL has been particularly good to me lately

Antibiotics

My car and being able to drive it.

My husband

Grace.

    I love this post! Great idea... I think there are times where I need to be reminded of how much I have to be grateful for.

    I'm thankful for:

    my graduate program, that I am in remission (Crohn's), my grandma, my puppy, my faith, my family, that I am fortunate enough to have good food on the table each night and a warm bed to sleep in.... so many things.

    2500 Comments Fifth Anniversary

    I'm thankful that no matter what I do, Jesus still loves me more than I'll ever understand.  I'm thankful that I waited for my DH (I was 36 when we met).  I am thankful for loving family and friends, good health, freedom, security...I could go on and on.

    Today I'm especially thankful for my little nieces and for Skype.  I had a rough day at work (almost cried twice) but seeing their faces and talking to them after work made my day so much better.

    Thanks for posting this Jenn.  It is good to be reminded of how much we are blessed.

    Love this thread!

    I am thankful for the amazing love Jesus has for me and how he is so forgiving, even at times when I don't think I deserve it.

    My FI and the future we have with each other
    My parents and the great examples they have been to my brother & I
    My brother for answering the call to protect our country
    My future Inlaws for being my family away from family

    What an uplifting thread!

    I'm thankful for:
    My husband, who shows me how much he cares, even when life feels like it's in turmoil
    A job that keeps me hopping, even if it IS only three days a week
    In-laws that love me like their own
    The internet
    A heater that isn't wood or pellet burning
