[December 14, 2012] Thankful for...prayer.  When faced with situations like the one in Connecticut, it's all there is to do sometimes...

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."  Isaiah 41:10

[December 13, 2012] Thankful for...making Christmas candy with my mom!  3 bags of pretzels, 3 bags of M&M's, 2 bags of caramel, and one run to the store, we got our pretzels done tonight. :)

[December 12, 2012] Thankful for...a project called Christmas for Cancer.  A family from our church who has been affected by cancer decided they wanted to make up care packages for patients who have cancer.  We were invited to make up gift bags with a blanket, hat, warm socks, and a cup with a straw, and the family is going to bring the bags to Detroit during their next visit.  What a great idea!

[December 11, 2012] Thankful for...finally being almost caught up with my Sports Illustrated! :)

[December 10, 2012] Thankful for... getting my presents ready.  I packed all my gifts for my kiddos tonight - a coloring book, stickers, crayons, and a few pieces of candy. :)

[December 9, 2012] Thankful for...baking cookies.  This afternoon was perfect for making cookies for a cookie exchange. :)
