Really!
But, saying thank you once a year doesn't make us any more healthy than going to the gym once a year would (sorry)! *wink*
The more you say thank you, the healthier your outlook on life is - the more you look for the good in people or situations.
Yesterday was Thanksgiving Day in the United States. Those of us who live in the United States enjoyed a wonderful day full of good food and family. We expressed our thanks for the bounteous blessings we have.
This weekend, think about the many things in your life you have to be thankful for and take the time to scrap it.
Our wonderful Design Team wanted to express their thanks for a few of the blessings in their lives.
Your friends at My Mind's Eye!

I have so many things to be grateful for. I've been given many opportunities in my life. I think the first blessing I had was being born to the parents I have. They are supportive, kind, loving (unconditionally) and extremely giving. They have taught me to be faithful, stand up for myself, serve others and be the best me I can be. They need to know I am grateful for what they have done and continue to do for me.

I am thankful for my friends. They are the best medicine I could have had this year.

I have been thinking about all the blessing I have been given and decided that I want to take the time to document some of them. One thing that has been on my mind lately is how grateful I am to have the privilege of being a stay-at-home mom and the time I have to spend doing all of the ordinary everyday things with my little sidekick, Finley. This is our last year being together all the time before she starts school. I am going to miss her so much! It's a good thing kindergarten is only a half day here. :)

Even though it is not MY Thanksgiving, I like to still remember my many blessings in life. My husband and children are of course at the top of my list everyday. I am so blessed to have them in my life. They are my EVERYTHING... always. But then I also need to be grateful for the many other gifts I have in my world... my friends, my family, my health and the wonderful opportunities I have as a result of my job. I often say that I am the luckiest gal I know and I mean it each and every time! Without these blessings, life as I know it would not be the same. I think it is important to reflect regularly on the many gifts and never take them for granted.

I chose to create a page about my amazing kids. We have faced quite a few challenges this year and when I stop to think how incredible they both have been through it all, it makes me smile. I am truly blessed in so many ways, but my kids are my world.
