I found this website ~ http://www.nablopomo.com ~ the National Blog Posting Month and they challenge you to post everyday for 30 days in the month of November. When I first saw this I thought can I actually do this? I mean I love to blog but everyday? Anyways, I decided to try. But then the next thing was what am I going to post about everyday...so since this is the month of November and Thanksgiving will be here soon I thought I'd write about the things I'm thankful for. I know I definitely don't take the time to be thankful for all the blessings I have in my life so I hope that this will allow me to do so.
Day 1
Today I am thankful for my mama and daddy. They are always here for me. They don't always agree with me but no matter what they have stuck me and done everything they could for me and my family. If it wasn't for mama and daddy, I can honestly say that my kids probably wouldn't have much of a Christmas this year. I can't even begin to describe how thankful I am for their help. As a parent you want your kids to have everything and sometimes it's just really hard when you can't do it. You feel like a failure. They understand this because it was hard for them to do it all for us when we were kids. Yet they always provided wonderful holidays for us. I am so grateful that I have such terrific people as my parents. I love them so much. I was raised by the best and I only hope that one day I can be half as good as them.
That's a cool idea. Good luck with your 30 days! :-)
ReplyDeleteI feel that way too. My Mom is the rock that has always been there for me.
