This is 6 1/2 year old Cheyenne. Notice the different moods. She is a very moody child. I much prefer the one on the left! In spite of her moods, she is a very loving, and sweet child. And I am very thankful to have her here!

It's really windy here in the Southwest. Supposed to be in the upper 90's and humid. The girls are in the pool right now.

In one of the groups I'm in, we use Fridays to remember our blessings.

That's a very good idea. Too often we think things just happen to us, but I never think that. I believe that a loving God Who created the universe and everything/everyone in it sends blessings our way just because He loves us and cares for us.

*I am so thankful for my family. Each and every family member is such a blessing to me and my life. Even the ones who don't especially seem to care about family have a reason to be here.

*I am so thankful for friends. I have people who call me just to see that I am ok, and to see how my health is. I appreciate that. My friends support me when times are not so good, and they love me no matter what.

*I am thankful for my husband. He's such a family oriented person, and takes such good care of us. I don't have to wonder about the upkeep of our home, because he has been true and faithful to take care of that. I don't tell him thank you often enough, and I'm working on that!

*I am so thankful for my dad. He's a good man, and always took such good care of us when we were growing up. Everyone should have such a good man for a dad!

*I am thankful that the health scare I went through is resolving. God took me through it with great Love and caring.

*I am thankful for the wonderful Beth Moore Bible study I'm doing right now. I am learning to be a better child of God, and a better person because of this. I can hardly wait to do another one!! :)

Sit down today and think of the things/people you are thankful for. Make a list, and be sure to say thank you!
