Well as I write this;
The oldest 4 kids are having a picnic lunch outside.. leftovers.
I'm thankful for my children and.. leftovers :)
The two youngest children are asleep..
I'm thankful for nap time and how it makes frowns into smiles. Mine and theirs.
The washer is spinning the load of darks which contains almost every one of my kitchen drying towels.
I'm thankful for the washer, the towels, the running water and the electricity and the fact that the load is soon finished and I'll soon have towels in the kitchen again :)
The canner is coming to a boil on the stove.
I'm thankful for the salsa and the know how and the propane stove which makes it all come together.
The dishwasher is running.. cleaning it's second load of the day.
I'm very thankful for my dishwasher and the job it does to save my hands from looking and feeling like raw meat :) and I'm thankful for the dishes too :)
My floors are clean and so is the bathroom..
I'm thankful for little boys with wash rags and brooms and little girls who tidy and prepare rooms.
For vacuum cleaners that work and the wonderful feeling of satisfaction clean floors and bathrooms give to me :)
There is a fire in the wood stove and leaves on the ground.
I'm thankful for changing seasons and the nice heat a wood stove brings to a chilly house.
My feet are hurting from all the canning I've done in the last two days.
I'm thankful for my feet, even if they hurt, as I don't know what I'd do without them :) and I'm thankful for the canning that we will eat this winter and enjoy the fruit of our labor.
What are you thankful for today??
