What are you thankful for?

I just looked at Ruth's blog post. That clip is amazing! Loved the interviews with people on the street about what they're thankful for interspersed with counsel from Elder Oaks. I hope you all look at it. You can get to it through my blog--g&r. Turn off my music first so you can hear it.

I'm thankful to live in this beautiful world. I see God's love in the colored leaves, the cloud formations, the geese flying overhead.

I'm thankful for the conference issue of the Ensign. I see God's love in those well crafted, inspired messages.

I'm thankful for a great FHE group where we can share feelings and testimony and jokes.

I'm thankful for Ken who has gained confidence through righteous living and who does all that is humanly possible to help his family.

I'm thankful for Neil who has truly become somebody (and for hosting us for Thanksgiving dinner!)

I'm thankful for Sheryl who stays positive through her hardships and who loves her kids beyond measure.

I'm thankful for Brenda who shares her creativity and talents to benefit others.

I'm thankful for Carl who loves his daughters and is willing to help me with computer problems.

I'm thankful for my dear Eldon who patiently rides out my lows and tempers my highs and loves me no matter what!

Most of all I'm thankful for Heavenly Father who loves me just because I'm His child.

That's a nice post, mom! Thank you. I'm thankful for parents who like to visit.

The video on Ruth's post is featured on lds.org right now. They have a new one every couple of weeks.
