TGIM
...but it feels like a Tuesday!
Just a shirt...
Speaking of being thankful, Ashley bought Ben a shirt this week. She saw it at Target and she liked it so she got it for him. Now this was right after Ben had begged and begged for a new toy from Target while we were walking in and finally settled on the fact that he was not going to get a toy, but he was going to get "shirts galore" for Christmas. This made him laugh though so it calmed the mood.
Back to the shirt. When I got it to put it on him I knew that he would not like it, but I put it on him anyway. It said, "Thankful and grateful" on the front. As soon as he read it he looked at his mom and said, "ahhh, now I can't complain about anything." How great would it be for us to all have that reaction? Now obviously he could complain with that shirt on, but it was a reminder to him that he did not have anything to complain about. How often do we just need that reminder?
What do you have to be thankful about? Maybe it is the four day work week....you all have definitely earned it. Sometimes it is those trying times that make us better people. Look for something to be thankful for this week and I bet you will find it!
