ABC's of Gratitude

As Thanksgiving is drawing near, I thought it would be nice to reflect on all the things I have to be grateful for.  I just scratched the surface, and writing a few things down brings so many other blessings to mind.  Here are just a few.

A- The Atonement, America
B-Blogging, Books 
C-My Children, Camera, Cousins 
D- Disposable Diapers
E- Epidural, Education
F-Family,  Food
G-Gospel, General Conference, Grandparents
H-Home, Health, Happiness
I-Ice Cream,  In-Laws
J- Journals
K-Kaeson
L-Lance, Leaders in the Church
M-Money-- In these times of economic struggle, we are so grateful to be making ends meet.
N-Nap-time
O-Ordinances, oreos
P- Parker, Priesthood
Q- My Quilt (Myrtle)
R- Old Roommates!  I was blessed with two AMAZING roommates in college!
S- The Savior, Sleep, Scriptures, Star Valley
T- Temple Marriage, Trials
U-Understanding 
V- Vehicle
W-Ward
X- Xtraordinary People--We are extremely blessed to be surrounded by incredible people all around us!
Y- You, all of you! 
Z-Zip-up pajamas for Kaeson

This is a great idea! I love Thanksgiving. It is so easy to think of all the things that maybe aren't as great as we would like and forget how many real blessings we have. I thought it was really cute that even the simplest things are the best (i.e. nap-time!) I better be one of those AMAZING roomates you were talking about!! :)
