I’m thankful for the pattering of raindrops on my window. I’m thankful for siblings who never cease to make me smile. I’m thankful for those random memories that make me burst into laughter in the middle of the night. I’m thankful for the clacking sound of keyboards. I’m thankful for rainbows that remind me that storms can turn into beauty. I’m thankful for the magical smell of books. I’m thankful for Owl City music. I’m thankful for the ever going music birds provide for the outdoors. I’m thankful for the cozy smell of coffee.
I’m thankful for pizza. I’m thankful for certain fluffy little poodles. I’m thankful for those quiet moments where nothing happens but daydreaming. I’m thankful for teacups. I’m thankful for the way cats purr when you pet them. I’m thankful for balloons. I’m thankful that God made the color pink. I’m thankful for socks. I’m thankful for libraries. I’m thankful for the sound of crunching leaves on Fall walks. I’m thankful for stuffed animals. I’m thankful for pointless conversations with loved ones. I’m thankful for Christmas music. I’m thankful for the sound of rustling leaves in the wind. I’m thankful for smiles.
This year I’ve learned to be thankful for all the little things in life, because what would life be without all the tiny things that make us smile? In the end, they’re not little things at all but what makes life beautiful. But, above all, I’m thankful for the very biggest thing. What Jesus did for me. Hope you all have a very Happy Thanksgiving! Don’t forget, there’s always something to be thankful for.
