Wesley's teacher made a little book of what the class was thankful for this year. Wesley said he was thankful for turkeys and he drew a picture of a turkey.

What am I thankful?

I most thankful for Jesus who loves me and died for my sins.

I am thankful that I can look forward to eternity in heaven.

I am thankful for Chris who loves me and our family and shows his love through his actions.

I am thankful for my children.

I am thankful that Wesley loves kindergarten and I am so grateful that he gets to go to a wonderful school that teaches the children about Jesus and has high academic standards. I am thankful for the loving teachers there.

I am thankful that Lydia is so articulate and has such a wonderful imagination. I am grateful that Wesley is her best friend.

I am thankful that Josiah is such a sweet, loving, and laid back baby. I am so glad we were blessed with a third baby and that the transition from two kids to three was a smooth one.

I am thankful for my wonderful parents and in-laws.

And like Lydia, I am thankful for vacations!
