November Tradition

During the month of November, we fill a decorated mason jar up with scraps of paper on which we write something we are grateful for.  The family night before Thanksgiving we dump out the contents and read every scrap of thankfulness.  Some make us laugh.  Some make us think.  Some make us feel gratitude all over again.  Some are not for public consumption.  All are sincere.  Here is our (public) list for this year...

Someone in our family is thankful for:

Music and dancing
Dada
All of the art projects that Nolan and Gerret make for me
Grandpa's cookies
Auburn's kind looks
My mom and dad and my brother and my sister and cats and dog
Family (x2)
"Doc-Doc"
The Book of Mormon (x2)
living in the beautiful, calm, quiet country --with Amish people
orange sweaters that look good on my wife
going on runs around my backyard
God
my "manket" (blanket)
pumpkins
the world
IBuprofen
having friends
Cinder
sinks that drain
Snoogy-woogy Wips
