I am thankful that God knocks me upside the head sometimes to get my attention! Sometimes I find I want to do things MY way, but He has shown me time and again that HIS way is better for me. I am thankful that He is patient with me and loves me anyway. I am also thankful that when I am feeling over burdened, I can give it to Him and He will give me comfort in exchange.

I am thankful for the wonderful family He has given me. I am truly blessed in the family area of my life.

I am also thankful for the many friends I have made on CD and that encouragement and love is no further than a click away! Many of you have been here time and again for me...Thank you all!

You're too funny Kaykay!

I'm also thankful that I was never struck by lightning all those times I used to sit out in my LAWN CHAIR and watched God's beautiful show!

I'm thankful that I have God and Jesus in my life. They have answered all my prayers (when the timing was right and if it was right for me). I might of been a little impatient from time to time but I never lost faith, never and the reward was so sweet!!!
