THANKFUL THURSDAY

I saw the following quote a little while ago and thought I might share it with you on this hot summer day:

Despite all the gloomy economic news these days, now is a good time to show gratitude for whatever good fortune has come your way. Whether you're a glass half-full or glass half-empty person, you can probably find something to celebrate. A good place to start is with those dearest to us. So, find a cool, shady spot and concentrate on those things you're grateful for. It's a sure antidote to those "dog days of summer." - Larry Lehmer

And I am also grateful that grandchild #7 is on the way--tomorrow we will journey forth and spend some time with the new little one and his sister, Miss Ella Bella, and his parents. Stay tuned for pictures this proud Grandmommy will surely share with you ASAP!

Today, consider making a list of things you are grateful for and write a paragraph about one each day for a week.
