Thirteen Things For Which I Am Thankful

1. The pretty pies my daughter, Clara, prepared from scratch.

Cherry-Berry

Apple-Cranberry





2. The way my daughter, Lily, is so peacefully curled up on the sofa with her head on her father’s shoulder.

3. How my husband remembers me even when he forgets my Dr. Pepper.

4. Hot tea and Pepperidge Farm Chessmen.

5. Our cozy home, my warm dress, and my sweater. (Can you tell I like being warm?)

6. The pre-cooked Thanksgiving dinner in my refrigerator.

7. That God has carried me through some of the saddest days of my life during this year.

8. How our home is crowded with good books. Some read, some unread as of yet, and some waiting to be read again.

9. For cranberry sauce with real cranberries and even for the jellied kind; because that’s the kind that makes Lily happy.

10. The wooden plaque over the door in my living room that reminds me to



Psalm 46:10

11. The comfort a certain puppy has brought to my life.

12. The family God has given me. Both immediate and eternal.

13. The blessing of good health that my family enjoys.
