Thankful...

Tonight, I'm choosing to forget about:

The turkey sugar cookies...

The pies...

The Pumpkin Torte...

Doing something nice for my new neighbors...

The laundry that piled up over the weekend...

My lost cell phone...

Trey's not-yet-learned lines for his Thanksgiving play...

Traveling with a two year old this week...

The grocery shopping...

The Christmas shopping...

The Lego E-bay shopping... :)

And instead, I'm choosing to just sit still (well, as still as I get... poor Tyler, I take after my mother) and be thankful. Because if none of that other stuff gets done, no one will remember a year from now anyway.

But they might remember if I had a thankful heart.

Choosing to be thankful today. Because I have so very much to be thankful for.

And because being thankful is a choice.

"The Lord has done great things for us and we are filled with joy!" ~ Psalm 126:3
