Thankful Thursday

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 a comment on this blog) to share your thankful thought for the week.

This week, I am thankful for my readers!! I had no idea that when I started a blog nine months ago that it would turn into this – this craziness that I am completely obsessed with and in love with – this that is so wonderfully journalling our family life – something that I always wanted to do but didn’t have the motivation to actually accomplish.

Somehow, the magic of having readers who give feedback and appreciate your stories is the best incentive in the world for journalling, and I am so excited for the 400+ journal entries that I have made so far this year!! In all seriousness – without you guys I would have never gotten so addicted to this. And the added bonus is that it is just as much fun to read your blogs (those of you who have them) as to write mine! I feel like I have a whole new circle of friends this year, and it really is a true blessing!!

I know I said that I was thinking about doing a reader appreciation giveaway each month (where I would randomly pick a winner out of my top commenters of the month), but seeing as how I have had three giveaways in the past month, I’m a bit giveawayed out right now. Or at least prized out. But because today is my day to appreciate you guys anyway, here were my top 11 commenters in November (in alphabetical order):

Amanda H.
Amanda T.
