Thanksgiving....I love this holiday....there’s family, there’s turkey, there’s dressing, there’s calories....everything in one nice package...what is not to love? So I take this time to give thanks to my creator, my savior, my helper, my ALL IN ALL!!
Since I have been doing my 1,000 gifts (Ann Voskamp, where ever you are, you have changed my life) for some 3 years now, I thought it only appropriate to tell you NOW what I am so thankful for...so here we go....
God, I am thankful for....
Such a beautiful sunset on the way home today from jazz....the blues and pinks in the sky...a thing of beauty!
Rubbing Emily’s back on the plane on the way home.
Joshua’s soft baby skin
Holding my mama’s crooked arthritic hand....the hand that loves me and cared for me for some 60 years...thank you mama!
Holding Daddy’s hand...those thick calloused hands, that worked hard all his life, but gentle in my hand.

Hearing a message from Stacy with Milly in the background saying...Majo, are you there?
Getting a text in the early morning from Glenda asking me....U UP?
Norah's smile from ear to ear.
Baby Powder...love the smell. How come it smells different on me than you?
Joe snoring next to me....reminding me that I have a husband who is ALIVE and well, who loves me and takes good care of me.
Talking to Annie on the phone and her asking me, "Can we come to your house Majo?"

Early morning jazz and my FAVORITE instructor!..you KNOW who you are!
My bible study girls....both Wednesdays and Tuesdays....SWEET!
Turning a knob and my fireplace glows...I turn around in the early morning with outstretched arms to see the shadow of the CROSS on the ceiling....
Having DEAR friends who mean the world to me...If I haven’t told you, shame on me...but I love you more than you probably know!
My 3 children...I remember when you came into this world....and life for me has never been the same!
Golf....I so love this sport that I discovered in my later years...thank you Lord...
Rocking babies to sleep...it never gets old, it only gets sweeter....the heavy breathing, the sweaty neck, all good in my books!
The grands running into the house looking for me...
Hugs
Ok, I think I could go on and on and on....my list is endless, when God is involved....so thank you Lord, for MY LIFE! May I never take it for granted, that I use it to your glory, that I continue to learn and grow on this journey!
