Thankful Thursday

I have so many things to be thankful for this week. 

1. I am thankful for people that become missionaries, even to see no fruit or in dangerous, or life-threatening situations.
2. I am thankful for understanding friends that might not agree with my decisions, but respect me enough to know that my decisions are right for me.
3. I am thankful for friends who support me when others don't.  I appreciate their concern and encouragement more than they will ever know.
4. I am thankful for my daughter who even though she tries to do no work, manages to get a few chores done here and there that lighten my load and she is happy to live off ramen noodles.
5. I am thankful for my family and the inspiration that they are.
6. I am thankful for being so busy and having so much to do because that means I am needed.  It is a great feeling to know that you are needed.  
7. I am thankful for my job and the opportunities it gives me.
8. I am thankful for all the lessons I have learned about debt.  Hopefully, they will remind me in the future to stay out of it!!
9. I am thankful for beautiful fall weather.
10. I am thankful for you, my blog readers.  You never criticize and leave me the most wonderful comments that encourage me. Now, leave one and tell me what you are thankful for this week!
