This is one of my favorite times of year. The weather is great and I am ready to come inside and huddle up for a while. Family time is in my mind mostly. At this time of year I am thankful most for my family. I have a wonderful husband who sticks by me even on my worst days. I have 3 wonderful children who I am so very proud of. And then there are my 5 grandchildren. I had no idea what people were talking about when they said being a grandparent is so great. Wow! Were they ever right. It is absolutely the best thing! All 5 of my grandkids bring such joy to my heart.
Of course, this wouldn't be complete if I didn't mention how thankful I am for my parents. What an amazing couple. We just celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. I am so thankful for them. I also have 3 great sisters and their families are also wonderful. My nieces and nephews have grown up to become the most wonderful young men and women.
So just stop and take a minute in these beautiful fall days to contemplate your family and how much they mean to you. Even the little things are so wonderful. So I declare... thanks be to God for my family!
