Thanksgiving week is here! Thursday is the BIG day. As I have been reading my friends posts there seems to be a lot of thanksgiving going on each and every day. I think we're beginning to see we don't have to wait until Thanksgiving day to be thankful and grateful. It's my humble opinion that we can choose to be grateful for some thing - some person - some gift - each and every day we live. I also believe that as we increase our gratefulness - our happiness increases proportionally!

Happy thanksgiving, i love Tweety bird
So much to be thankful for....Happy Thanksgiving, my friend!
YES, THANKSGIVING!
I have noticed more folk being thankful than being hungry for the big meal. That is good. We will be in Florida for the big day, I am THANKFUL for that.
Love from Yamassee, SC
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving week! I shared a few memories today...sweet memories! Hugs!
That is so true. A fellow blogger has a notebook and EVERY NIGHT she writes down things she was thankful for during her day. I hope you have a wonderful day planned for Thursday.
This is a great reminder. You are so right that thinking of all we have to be thankful for makes us happy.
I am having a houseful of people over for the holiday so I won't be on Blogger much this week. Just wanted to check in and wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving. Enjoy every moment!
So true to be thankful every day! I know you are such an advocate of this, Sandie; it helps me to be appreciative and thankful too! May it be a good week ahead as you get ready for Thanksgiving Day!
betty
Love that! Fear is a mind-killer, face it! Great word in addition to the thankfulness! Many blessings!
Excellent idea.... To increase our thankfulness.
Because I think that goes hand-in-hand with noticing the lovely things, which we have to be thankful for.
In other words... with Mindfullness.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Sandie! I love the quote!
I agree with you the more we are thankful, the more it seems we have to be thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving from my house to yours!
Thanksgiving week and we are preparing for it! Amber thought we would be going back home for Thanksgiving but the traffic is SO bad!! (We came down here one year and it was bumper to bumper!!!) So we are staying here. Amber's dad (my ex)and his wife are also joining us. A Table of 6...both sets of Amber's parents plus amber and Mike. First time we have all seen each other at the same time since the wedding. This is Jesse's first time to see the babies! It sounds kinds funny but I have prayed about it and have perfect peace that all will go well. Amber's happy - and that's very important!! ***Now how do I word this in my blog???
STILL and ALL ----SO much to be thankful for~~
Yes, ma'am! Every single day. At all times and in all ways - we are thankful. Blessings to you and a Happy Thanksgiving.

This month of Gratefulness has been a real blessing to me! I know you have a busy week ahead! Enjoy time with your family! Big Hugs, Linda

I am so thankful for all my blessings, Sandie! God is good to me. Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving!♥
Sandie! hi! awh, this is so nice to read a peaceful post of glad wishes and happy gratitude. As we pray each day we show gratitude for our blessings. gratitude is parallel to God. If we acknowledge His had in each daily event, then that makes us a very grateful people. that is so cool!!!

Happy Thanksgiving, friend~
and you are right, it shouldn't take one day to bring out people's thoughts of gratefulness. It should be an attitude we wear daily.
Well said Sandie. Every day is thanksgiving but it sure is a good thing we don't eat the whole big meal every day
You are so right! Happy Thanksgiving!
Hi Sandie...Couldn't have possibly said it better than that! Life is such a wonderful gift and each day is a miracle. Susan
Amen, Sandie.

I agree...we all have reasons to feel grateful. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday for that very reason.
Have a good one!!!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your loved ones!!
You are so right my friend! xo
I am thankful for what I have every day - and that includes friends like you.
LOVE. LOVE. LOVE this post, Sandie!!!! Amen, Sister. Amen. blessings ~ tanna
We don't celebrate thanksgiving here in the UK, but that doesn't mean I'm not thankful!
Have a wonderful day!!
Hope your Thanksgiving is as full of delight as you are always:)
While I love Thanksgiving, we certainly don't need a special day (or even a month) to be thankful. We should live with an attitude of gratitude each and every single day. ;-)
I think it is wonderful to have a special day to give thanks to the Lord for our countries blessings.
..
wishing you and yours a very nice Thanksgiving.
I try to be thankful each day :)
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Love,
Debby
Hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving!
