Thankful Thursday is a weekly column where I post what I am thankful about that week, and you have the opportunity (via your blog linked into this post OR via comments) to share your thankful thought for the week.
My Thankful Thursday thought today is somewhat shallow, but I’m thankful anyway! I am so thankful that I finally found the time and motivation to finish my second blook! I started it months ago and it’s been weighing heavily on me, but I just haven’t had the time to finish it. I’ll order it later today, and will show you pictures of it in a couple of weeks when it comes in!! And for all of you bloggers out there who document your family life via your blog, you really should check into making a blook – it’s the world’s best scrapbook if you don’t want to having to cut tiny pieces of paper with fancy scissors!
And also, reason #377 that I am glad that Ali is the age that she is: She is going through a wonderful “thankful” phase herself. Everytime I hand her something, I get a very happy, singsongy “Thank you, Mommy!!” It’s sooo lovely! Now if she’d just get the hang of asking for things in her happy voice the first time she asks for them rather than demanding them. But we’re working on it, and making progress! And for that, I can be thankful!
OK – your turn!! What are you thankful for today? Leave it in a comment, or if you have a blog, write a post on your blog and link it in with Mr. Linky (at the bottom of this post), and you can have the pleasure of welcoming my wonderful readers to your site!
To use Mr. Linky to link to your blog, just type in your name in the first slot, then copy and paste the URL of your blog post in the second one and click “Enter” – then there will be a link to your post from my blog! ***be sure to put the link to your actual “Thankful Thursday” post – not just your main blog URL.***
Rachel, I have a question for you about Mr Linky. How do you link to the actual post? Is this too hard to explain in a comment? I can link through the URL to my blog, but don’t know how to do to an actual post.
To get a direct link to a post, click on the title of your post on your blog. Then the address (URL) at the top of the screen becomes the permalink to that post. For instance, on this post, when you click it, you will then see: http://rachelzcallahan.blogspot.com/2008/11/thankful-thursday.html.
Copy that (ctrl-C), and then go to the Mr Linky that you want to insert it and paste it (ctrl-P).
Good luck!
Although I am not happy with the out come of the election. I am thankful that I am an American where at least we can vote for our choice in government. I am thankful for all the men, and women who have served our country and often times died so we can have that right and Freedom.
I am thankful for my family and all that they do to support me.
I am thankful for all the blessings that the Lord gives me each day and for knowledge although it is sometimes difficult to understand, that he is in control of everything that happens in my life and I just need to trust him.
