(10/20) Thankful....

A few years ago, I did a Bible study called "The Power of a Positive Mom". It focused on thankfulness and the power of a positive attitude. I need to take it again...it's time. One thing I remember clearly is to get into the habit of thanking God as you go about your chores...while putting away the dishes, be thankful you have dishes...and food to eat...many do not. Be thankful the dishwasher is loaded with plastic princess dishes....and spiderman cups...and you have healthy children to eat off those dishes. Be thankful for a dishwasher to wash your dishes...and cabinets to store them in...and a home which holds the cabinets. Be thankful for clean water to wash with...for soap and towels...and all the things I need to keep my home clean. It's easy to get bogged down in the every day process of living...but as I go about my daily routine...I'm going to remember how very, very much I have to be thankful for.
