Can you tell that I like word art? I love taking words and seeing what I can do with them!
I found this quote today and thought I'd share it. How many times do you think about something your grateful for and not share it? How do we feel when someone tells us that they are thankful for something we have done?

Here's a sappy one. Tuesday morning I was driving the kids to seminary and heard the song "Good Morning Beautiful" on the radio. Here's the beginning lyrics...
Good morning beautiful
How was your night
Mine was wonderful
With you by my side
And when I open my eyes
And see your sweet face
It's a good morning beautiful day
Sappy huh? But it made me think about how grateful I am that no matter how busy we are, how crazy things get, and sometimes even how out of tune we are with each other, every night he is there beside me. I remember when we were first married how much I loved that! and it just made me remember that I still do! Its emphasized by the fact that when he's working the evening shift I just don't sleep well until he's actually home, even though I know he will be.
(S0 this gratitude thing is making me really sappy - sorry!)

So, here's the clincher - I thought these things, but I didn't go home and actually express them - and I know that happens way too often. So I am giving myself a challenge to find someone each day to say thank you to for something specific that they have done (my cyber thank you posts don't count I actually have to say it). Wanna try?
