The Thankful Series

After dinner a few nights ago, Aiden looked at me with a little bit of confusion in his face. I think he was unsure whether he should say what he was thinking. He even hesitated for a moment when he said, “Dad, in a way, I’m kind of thankful you got fired.” And then he started listing some of the reasons. Remarkably, many of them weren’t very dissimilar from the ones I shared a few weeks ago.

Inspired by that conversation and the weekly posts from a co-worker, I have decided that I need to continue to remind myself that I have much to be thankful for. So I’ve decided to resurrect a series I did back in 2010. Be on the lookout for Thankful Thursday beginning next week.

Hopefully this will be a reminder for all of us to slow down and take the time to give thanks. And maybe it will give you the opportunity to share what you’re thankful for, too. And we can be thankful together.

So let’s get the ball rolling. What are you thankful for?
