Tonight I'm thinking backwards...

1) I'm thankful for my seemingly always messy house because it means I not only have a house, but I also have dishes, and clothes, and belongings, and toys (for the kids) and all of those things mean I am blessed. 
2) I'm thankful for bills in the mail because it means I am blessed with clean, running, warm water and lights by which to see, and a roof over my head, and a phone to communicate with, etc.
3) I'm grateful for my car that is slowly falling apart because it means I have a way to get from point A to point B. My kids and I can drive to grandmas, to the store, or to fun places like the park or the zoo. 
4) I'm grateful for a difficult, demanding, and challenging job because it means I have money to provide the basic necessities of life for my family. 
5) I'm thankful that my husband works long hours and usually doesn't get home before 9pm because it means he has a job that also helps provide for our family. We do not have every nice thing nor do we do very fancy things very often, but we are lucky to be employed.
