A late Thanksgiving ponderance…
[Thanks first to Michelle Malkin for getting the ball rolling; self-reliance is such a important sentiment to balance any true sense of thankfulness that I hope no one misses it. Now on to me and mine...]
I am thankful for the roof that this year has now been over my children for almost five years. We have not always been sure that it would be as solid as it has become.
I am thankful my children are (mostly) healthy and filled with potential (along with all the other stuff that 8- and 10-year-olds are full of).
I am thankful for the three psychotic cats that also live in our home.
I am thankful for the ability to work. Not every person is guaranteed this.
I am thankful for functional transportation. For me, nothing drives me nuts more than not being able to provide my family with reliable wheels.
I am thankful for the friends and family that have shared with us and cared for us.
I am thankful for my God. He defines what is our purpose, and provides peace throughout the storms.
Mostly, I am thankful for my wife — whom I believe He sent to show me His kingdom. I didn’t even have to die first.
Enjoy the rest of the Thanksgiving weekend, everybody. -Dan
