Thanksgiving thanks

It seems appropriate that I list things I am grateful for on this thanksgiving. I am grateful that Sandi has been out of work for almost 6 months. We finally get to spend time together. Before he was working two jobs just to make ends meet and when he came home he was exhausted and would sleep. Somehow though we are still making ends meet. I am also grateful we have no cable. We can still watch movies if we want but the television is no longer the center of the home. I am grateful our insurence was canceled because I would have never learned we weren't really suppose to have it the whole time anyway. I am grateful we had such a hard time finding a house, because the one we have now is perfect and cheaper than any others we saw. I am grateful for priesthood that leads my home and keeps us safe. This "hard" time we are going through is one of my best.

The Lord expects us to be thankful in all things, but we both know that is sometimes pretty hard. It's good you recognize that all dark clouds have their silver lining. It's the tough times that help us to grow, but I'm glad we can be around to help keep them from feeling so tough they break you instead.
