Why I am Thankful!

• I am thankful for the mess to clean up after a party because it means I have been surrounded by friends.
• I am thankful for the taxes I have to pay because it means I have a job and I am employed.
• I am thankful for the clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have had enough to eat.
• I am thankful for the lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, gutters that need fixing because it means I have a home.
• I am thankful for all the complaining I do about the government because it means we have freedom of speech.
• I am thankful for the parking spot I find at the far end of the lot because it means I am capable of walking.
• I am thankful for my big heating bill because it means I am warm.
• (I love this one. Don’t look around. Don’t turn. Just listen.) I am thankful for the lady behind me in Church who sings off-key because it means I can hear.
• I am thankful for the piles of laundry and ironing because it means my loved ones are nearby.
• I am thankful for weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day because it means I have been productive.
• And finally, I am thankful for the alarm that goes off early in the morning because it means that I am still alive.

Samantha and Hunter sure thinks your a great Grandma and Grandpa! Sam always wants to call you and asks when your gonna come meet her cat Max LOL! Thanks for being so great to our kids and us it means the world to us.

I feel that being a grandmother is one of the most fun things I've ever done. I have 4 of the sweetest grandkids and enjoy them a lot.
