Tuesdays Thought

Well it is November and the Facebook month of thanks has started. I think being thankful is important to teach our children.  I feel that we often focus on the negatives of life and forget to be thankful for the small things.  

So cause I know I won't be able to do this on a daily bases, cause I always miss a day :) here is my month of thanksgiving...
