1) I'm thankful that my kids are excited about the first day of school and yet sad that they will be spending less time with our family. We've had a rough year, but this past summer has seen a lot of lightening of the load, and it has been enjoyable to pull together as a family and enjoy each other during that time. I believe we can continue to enjoy our family time during the school year as well.
2) I'm thankful for my education in regards to my career. I know many people who have been very successful in their work without having a bachelor's degree or higher, and I've also seen some of those people struggling recently to either move from a bad job situation to a better one, or to get hired in a new position after downsizing. I don't claim to be any smarter or more talented than these people, because I'm not. I do have a bachelor's degree, and I believe that it is helping me during this difficult economic time.
3) I'm thankful for a loving Heavenly Father. I know that He knows me personally, and that He loves me more than I can imagine. I'm thankful that he provides me opportunities for growth and development in all areas of my life, and that He is a perfect role model for me to try to emulate as I deal with my children.
