I'm Thankful!

With Thanksgiving nipping at my heels I thought I would do a "Thankful" post. I needed to sit down and list some of the things I'm thankful for.
-First and for most I am thankful for my family!
-I am thankful for a loving husband who treats me like and queen and honers his priesthood.
-I am so very thankful for my two little boys who bring me such joy and happiness.
-I'm grateful for loving parents.
-I am grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ.
-I'm thankful for repentance.********(I've got to star that one!)
-I thankful that Lane has a good job so I can stay at home with my boys.
-I'm thankful for good friends in my life who lift me up.
-I'm thankful that I live in a free country.
-I'm thankful for all our men and women in the military that keep us safe.
-I am so excited and grateful Laney has chosen to be baptized on Saturday!
-I am grateful for my health and the health of my family.
-I'm thankful that Father in Heaven hears and answers prayers.
-I am thankful Lane and I were able to go to the temple yesterday.(and it didn't snow until we got home.)
-I am thankful for priesthood blessings.
-I am grateful for a roof over our heads and food to eat.
-I am grateful for Sis. Hunt ( She is a dear friend of mine that I look up to and love dearly. Who answered my prayers more then once lately.)
I am grateful for so many things I would be here all day if I kept listing them. I just want to say that I am so thankful that I have been so blessed. Here is one of my favorite poems about Thanksgiving enjoy!
Thank you, God
By: Marian L. Moore

Another year has come and gone;
On this Thanksgiving Day,
O God, our hearts are turned to Thee;
With grateful thanks we pray.

For all thy care which shelters us
Wherever we may go,
For wonders of thy bounteous love
Which ever make it so,

For all the beauties of the world
Created by thy hand
And given to your people here
Who dwell upon the land,

For harvest when the autumn flings
Her color to the sky,
For winter silence, soft and deep,
Protecting snow, piled high,

For all thy wondrous gifts to us,
Your children here below,
We offer grateful thanks to Thee;
Our love for You will grow.
