I'm thankful for my husband, who though has his moments, is a the most loving and caring man alive even though I know I drive him nuts most of the time. For my 3 kids even when they are often put on the auction block for driving me insane. Without them I wouldn't have anything to fuss over. I'd have time to scrapbook and other things. I'm thankful for my health and my family. being a 6 year cancer survivor is a good thing. I had 2 very healthy kids after 40.I'm thankful I have a God that cares.

If we're all honest, this will be the thread that has no end.I'm thankful for my salvation and that God loves me and helps me make it through the day, each and every one of them.And if I can sneak in a second one, as you can tell by my screenname, I'm thankful for my granddaughter.

I am thankful for everyone on here! I have made some wonderful friendships, met some great gals and went places I wouldn't have and learning so much from all of you. this includes SG!I am thankful I have my son, who brightens my day, with his kindness and helpful ways. I am thankful that I have an easy going, laid back husband that loves me and puts up with me.I am thankful for both my parents, during the last year with my accident and family issues they surprised me and were totally behind me in everyway! (they speak their minds and if they didn't like something they would tell me up front!)I am thankful that I was born and live in the USA and that we have men and women who are in the service for us.Misty

I'm thankful that I was able to have my sister visit me last month. She's had so little and it was good to be able to do a little something to divert her from her illness. I'm thankful that my Aunt Marie does so much for our family and is so giving - no matter that no one thinks to thank her.

Great idea Gloria, I am thankful for so many things.First my DH that is always so thoughtfull, he is such a great husband and father. My younger son said once, if I turn out half as good as my dad, I HAVE IT MADE. I am so thankful, the lord gave me three healthy beatiful boys. And now a DIL and four Great Grandkids. I am thankful for our health. Although we have our little ups and downs, its not too bad. I am sooo thankful for having so many caring brothers and sisters. I am the last of 14 and our family is very close. They are always there for me.I am thankfull for all our jobs. i know I don't work, but I try to keep up with everyone else, and take care of the grandkids when needed. I am so thankful I came to Stickers Galore and found so many caring friends. My best friend had just moved away, and thanks to you, it was so much easier for me to deal with it. You girls were there for me when I lost my Mother this past year. You girls are the BEST!And I can't forget the wonderful country we live in. And our men and women that are making sure that we are as safe as we can be. Being away from their families to help us have a better life. May God Bless them and take care of them. And thank you Gloria, for helping us to feel more thankful today.
