I’m thankful for the visiting teaching program at Church. My companion is twice my age and has become a good friend. I really enjoy her company and friendship. We visited together for over an hour after we visited the sisters we visit from church. We first became friends when I was her visiting teacher. We…
Yesterday (the 18th) my family traveled to Cedar City, Utah to tour the new temple there. You can see photos of the temple here. I’m grateful that we were able to go. Friday I was grateful for the beautiful day we enjoyed. Today, I am glad that though temperatures reached 34ºF (1ºC) last…
I am thankful for a warm bed in which to sleep.
I’m grateful today for roses. I was looking at some medieval rose gardens via Pinterest, and I thought about how roses were a luxury item for so long. Only the wealthy had rose gardens. There were some once a year blooming wild roses, but roses gardens were a thing for those with huge estates. Today,…
Today, I am thankful for daylight savings time. While I don’t always love this invention, in the fall on the day of the change and a few days to follow, they are more willing to go to bed at bedtime, because it feels later to them! It always makes for a few quieter evenings and…
I’m thankful for the chance to speak with my son at college. I remember the expensive long-distance bills and the way we had to arrange to speak at a certain time when I was in college, dividing up the long-distance bill with roommates. While cell phones certainly cost more per month, I appreciate that with…
I, too, am thankful for our beautiful autumn weather in northern Idaho…although we did have snow about two weeks ago. This is one year that all of the fall chores are getting done because there’s no excuse not to!
I introduced my friend Heather (who has a very low income) to OCC and she had a wonderful time filling a box for a girl 10-14. I wasn’t doing anything else Thursday, so I made a gathered skirt for her shoebox. She bought a coordinating T-shirt at Michael’s. Her 9-year-old granddaughter loved the skirt and it fit her perfectly! So Heather–who I am thankful for every day–is going to make her granddaughter a shoebox, too, and I’ve signed up to make her a skirt, too.
I’m very thankful to have found almost 20 lbs of an edible and highly medicinal mushroom, maitake or hen of the woods, on our land today.
I am thankful for laughter, especially the sound of my family.
I’m thankful for snuggles with my newborn and for the opportunity for my parents and sisters to snuggle her too. It is so lovely to see how happy she makes my family.
I too am thankful for the beautiful weather we have been having in the Seattle area.
I’m thankful for my husband. We have had our challenges, but I am happy to have him by my side. He makes me laugh and he is truly a good and honest person.
I am thankful for a family that is always willing to help whether it is raking leaves or moving furniture.
I am thankful for having basic knowledge of baking which allows me to make wonderful, inexpensive treats for my family on a budget. I am also thankful for naps on the couch, in front of a nice warm fire, on a cold and snowy afternoon.
I am thankful that our whole family is feeling better after being ill for the last week. I am especially thankful that my husband is well on the mend and has a day off today to rest.

I’m thankful to make cookies and memories with my granddaughters.
