I am Thankful for...


So a couple of weeks ago, Hannah ended up going to Activity Days with me because Chad was doing something else. Anyway, for our activity we talked about Gratitude. I had the girls look through magazines and cut out pictures of things that they were grateful for. To my surprise, Hannah got totally into it and she was able to identify many things she was thankful for such as princesses, necklaces, juice boxes etc. It was very cute and her collage has been hanging on the fridge ever since. Over the next couple of weeks she has continued to notice things around her that she is thankful for. Instead of saying I like this, or I like that, she says "Mom, I am thankful for this or that" It is really quite cute. Last night as I was tucking her into bed she looked at me and said Mom, I am thankful for you and for daddy, but I am especially thankful for Jesus." Needless to say, I couldn't help but feel extremely blessed. Hannah can be such a sweet girl and it scares me sometimes at how intuitive she is. I am thankful for her.
