Thankful Tuesday on the Thankfulest Week of Year! 2013-11-25T22:23:47-07:00 michaboyett

Because if you can’t get all thankful on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, when can you really get thankful?

A Few Thankful Lists:

What August was thankful for on his school Thankful poem:

Food
Water

What Micha, August, and Brooksie were thankful for on our thankful tree (Chris did not participate!):

August: Ice Cream
Micha: Coffee
Micha: Dancing
Brooksie: Airplane
Brooksie: Milk
Brooksie: Birds
Brooksie: Fast Car
August: Spaghetti
August: Donut
Brooksie: A Cat
August & Micha: Chocolate

(Do you know what this tells me? Brooksie is the only person in this house capable of being thankful for things that aren’t food and/or drink.)

Things I’m thankful for that aren’t hanging by scotch tape on any doors in my house:

A husband who emails my friends that he’s going out of town, just to make sure they know and can help me not be lonely and overwhelmed while he’s gone
Friends who step in and watch my kids when I schedule a dentist appointment for a terrible day/time and don’t realize (somehow) until twenty-four hours before
Answered prayers and good hope
A husband who roasts the turkey like a machine
The lightly roasted tan of the marshmallows on the sweet potatoes
Those miracle days when I actually wake up at 5:30 and pray…and how God meets me in the quiet
Watching August experience the joy of a school vacation. “You mean Tuesday is like a Friday?!”
Brooksie pushing Diny the Dinosaur in a pink dolly stroller all over San Francisco. My friend Liz has coined it #Dinovember.

Happy Thanksgiving Thankful Tuesday. What are you thankful for?
