I am most thankful for being born an American. Sometimes I wonder how that happened when so many people in the world are suffering. It amazes me that I was chosen to be born free.
Thanks for this chance to win. I would take a Walmart card, I already entered for a LOT of Starbucks.

Mechelle said...

Oh there are so many things I'm thankful for but as a stay at home Mom the thing that currently makes me thankful is the Internet~ It has given me the ability to be a SAHM and still make a little money on the side to help. I also have made so many wonderful friends online... it's just a beautiful opportunity to get to know people you'd never have the chance to meet without the internet. Friends around the World unite all because of this little thing called the web!
Blessings!

I want to let you know how thankful I am for my whole family.
How I cherish every moment, every phone call, every hug and even the temper tantrums of a small child.
I know its not a very inspiring but sometimes it takes losing someone to open your heart wider than you ever thought it could open.

I am thankful that my husband loves me more than he loves his new TV. Short story, 6 weeks after we bought a new 47 inch flat screen TV, I lost control of the Wii-mote and broke it (the TV--the Wii-mote is fine.) You can read the story on my blog. (7/6/08)

I am thankful for many things, but am especially grateful for good health. I know how devastating it can be to have high medical bills and physical discomfort as I have seen it in the lives of others. I feel blessed that I can travel and do what I really want to without the worry of health issues.

Thanks for the great contest!

Instantly I think of my gift of eternal life through Jesus, but then you sound a bit picky so I'll add the fact that my husband and I just celebrated our Golden Wedding Anniversary this July 7th!
So, can anyone top that? I think NOT.

Ooooh... Starbucks! Yum! :) I am so thankful for my husband! He has always been so patient, kind, and loving with me- and he's an awesome father!

Michele P. said...

While I am thankful for the usual things, family, health, etc.... I am also thankful for my JOB. My job entails providing fuel assistance to needy families in the wintertime, and yes, I would be lying if I said I wasn't grateful for the paycheck...but to see the young, struggling family and the elderly widow in my office wondering WHERE they will get their oil, wondering if they can go home to another night at a cold house, and telling them that emergency assistance will be on their way with 100 gallons within 24 hours, watching tears of desperation turn to tears of joy.... yes, I am grateful for my job, and the help I can provide to so many.

Chelsea Rae said...

One thing I am thankful for is super easy right now! I am thankful that the baby growing in my tummy is safe and sound! We were worried for awhile we were going to loose him and it got pretty scary but thankfully he is doing just fine!

I would love Starbucks please.

I am thankful for being born in a very safe environment and country, Canada. The reason is so because I am a growing teenager that has many opportunities surrounding her. I am able to tune in the TV and know what is going on the other side and receive the best education there is.

Unlike the unfortunate children in Africa who live in poverty, I am able to do anything I free to choose with many things I can choose from.

I am thankful for every day I have had with my mother and every day that I will have with her. I never knew how thankful I was for her until 1) I had my own children, and 2) I found out she was dying of cancer. It took both of these profound experiences to show me the depth of gratitude I have for what this incredible woman has been in my life.

I am extremely thankful for my son, who was born in March. We weren't sure if we wanted or could even have children so we were so blessed when I became pregnant. He's the best thing that has ever come into my life along with my husband.

Thanks for sharing!

I'm thankful that my husband has found a new company to work for that actually values him and his abilities.
He has done so much for his old company and they have shown little to no interest in compensating him for his value.
Thanks for the giveaway.

Five weeks ago our sweet baby Kate was born completely healthy. At the 20 week ultrasound, we were told that she had a marker for down syndrome. We decided to be content that God was knitting baby Kate together in His perfect will and didn't do any further testing to find out if she indeed did have a disorder.
We are thankful that she is a happy, healthy baby.

One of the things I am thankful for is the wonderful ladies I've met thru blogs. I know that's not the "normal" answer of family, children, etc. and I am thankful for all of those things... but having met several true friends thru blogging is a real treat. Even if we never meet it's so nice to have a person you can relate to in the internet world. It's amazing at how a blog can change ones life.

Fedora said...

I'm thankful that I don't always get what I want ;) With perfect hindsight, I can see that what I wanted would have been terrible if I'd gotten it--marrying my college boyfriend, or having my children much closer together in age, or any number of unmet desires that have turned out to really be blessings! I thankful that instead I've gotten what I've needed, and if I'm patient, usually that ends up being what I would have wanted if I'd known any better ;)

Thanks for the chance to reflect on our blessings!

So thankful for my little boy who is healthy! I am thankful for my husband and his job, that I am able to stay home right now with my son. I am thankful for my country, that we are free citizens. I am thankful for my church, and GOd, that he sent his son to die for my sins, so I can go to Heaven. I have so much to be thankful about, thanks for reminding me about it!

I am thankful for my husband who has helped me through so many things, college, finals, being pregnant, taking care of children and the home. He is truly a blessing.

Oh...I would prefer the Wal-Mart card.

Tarasview said...

We are in the process of a serious financial crises and sometimes I get all caught up in the materialistic aspects of life... but what I am truly so thankful for is my family. My husband who is my partner in all things and who has stood by me during this financial crises, and who has supported me through 3 bouts of serious post-partum depression. I am so thankful for my beautiful children who give me hundreds of reasons to be grateful every day. I am so incredibly thankful to live in Canada, where even if we are completely broke we are still richer than most of this world. And most of all I am thankful for Jesus who died to save me and keeps me sane and whole in this life!

I am thankful for my husband. We've been through a lot, most of which is our fault, lol. I am thankful that he is a great provider, hard worker and he always puts his family first, no matter who gives him flack about it.

Anonymous said...

I am thankful that so many people have sacrificed to help me live the life I live today. Christ, the soldiers in many wars over many years, my parents while I was growing up, the teachers who spent extra time with me afterschool when they weren't being paid overtime, the mentors who have guided me...

Of course you know the list can go on and on. But as I said, giving thanks to those who have sacrificed and continue to sacrifice so that the rest of us may live comfortably and securely is a blessing we all share!

I am so thankful to have all of my children. Sometimes I take it for granted that I have them, but as I struggle to have another and it is not so easy, I just appreciate having them.
But just this week I became even more thankful for having them, alive and healthy. A friend's daughter had placenta previa and gave birth to her still born son at 21 weeks. So sad. And I am so blessed not to have had to go through that.

Unknown said...

Right now we are going through debt consolidation for all of our credit cards. We were young and stupid when we got them and now we are paying for it.

The inspiring part is while most marriages crumble in hard times, ours has held strong. This hasn't been one of those things here we blame one another, we've held a united front.

My husband works his tail off to provide for us and I'm blessed everyday for being the lucky woman that he calls his wife.

I am thankful for the way my paper is starting to come together. I only had a week to write it (for a summer class), and I had been stressing about it. Now I've written 6 of 10 pages, and the last 3 just sort of fell out of my fingers! (how else do you say that in the electronic age?)

I'm thankful for having my very own Bible (actually Bibles) that I can read any time I want to. I'm thankful that I live in a free country that allows me to read that Bible without persecution, at least not so far.

Thanks for this opportunity. I would like the Wal-Mart GC. It would be more practical.

My son is multi-learning disabled and has dyspraxia, a motor disability. For awhile when he was little life was really hard and we had to fight tooth and nail for him against an unwilling school system.

I'm thankful for the angel of a teacher who saw that diamond in the rough and who, through a lot of sweat and tears, helped transform him into the confident, eager kid he is today.

Who also won the "most improved student award" (his very first award ever) when he graduated grade 7.

I am SO thankful for a successful surgery two weeks ago. My husband and I have been stuggling with pregnancy loss and infertility for the past year, but we are so hopeful after this surgery. The Lord was good to lead us to one of the best specialists in the country, and she was able to determine and remove the causes of both my miscarriage and infertility. And the recovery wasn't even too bad! It will all be worth it if we can have a healthy baby now. Thanks so much!

I am thankful for the financial troubles we've had in the past year, it has brought us closer together as a family, and taught us (especially me) to let go & rely on God because I now know I can't do it on my own & God has solutions I'd never imagine in my wildest dreams!

Karen said...

I am thankful for my brother. He nearly died after a fatal stint as a professional bullrider, several surgeries, and several months in the hospital. The fact that he is alive is truly a miracle. He was in a rural area at a rodeo when he was thrown and the bulls hoof was caught in his safety vest and kept stomping him while trying to get free. The local hospital wasn't equipped for a trauma of that magnitude and the helicopter was on another call. They sent for another ambulance from the major city 1 and 1/2 hours away, meaning it was 3 hours before he got to the Trauma Center, and 10 minutes after he arrived he was in surgery. Every major organ was damaged except his heart. Needless to say, we are so thankful to still have him!

I'm thankful for the freedom to openly proclaim my belief in Jesus Christ and for so many other things too numerous to name. If I won, a Walmart card would be awesome with school quickly approaching. Thanks for a great giveaway.

After having our AC out for 4 days (and we live in the high desert outside of LA), I am so thankful that the AC repair man came today!!! I am also thankful that Starbucks makes Grande Mocha Frappaccinos and I am healthy enough and my husband has a great job to allow me to enjoy them a couple times a week! Great giveaway! Thanks for offering it!

I am thankful for my family, and particularly for my mother and the close relationship we have. I feel most blessed to have her in my life. I love my husband and two sons dearly, but sometimes I just need a female sympathetic ear, and that is my mom.

I'm thankful that my daughter was able to secure the reception hall that she wanted for her wedding. It was the desire of her heart and God blessed them.

Thanks for your generosity!

I am thankful for Grace. God's Grace given so freely and undeservedly. Something I never could earn given and am never expected to earn. A pure, unselfish Love that compels me to love back.

I'm thankful that no one was hurt when I totaled our car on Wednesday - not me, not my 18-mo-old, not the other driver, and especially not our 19-week-old unborn little one.

We may even be able to afford another car on just what USAA will give us for my old one!

I am thankful that I got laid of from work as of Sept 1st. I know sounds weird but I finally get the chance to try my hand at being a stay home mom. I would have never been brave enough unless someone had made the decision for me. God gives us what we need most in the funniest ways.
