Thankful MEME

I got this one from The Organizing Junkie I don't usually do these but I thought trying to find 3 things, and only 3 things that I am thankful for would be interesting!
1. Even though I hate the Navy, and the havoc it wreaks on our family life, I am thankful that the ship my husband is attached to will never take him to Iraq or the Middle East for deployment.
2. I am so thankful everyday for the blessing my 2 little guys are to us. God has blessed us with two healthy kids that are full of energy and joy. I can't wait to add our third in August, and no, we don't know what we are having!
3. I am thankful for being redeemed and set free! That as a Christian, even if my guilt can creep up on me in my thoughts, I KNOW I am FORGIVEN!

Hey, that wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. There is so much more I am thankful for, but I think these are definitely my top 3. And it is nice to contemplate all we are thankful for, I think it helps me to see what we do have and not what we want to have.
What are you thankful for?? I can't really tag anyone since I am new at this and I don't know who my regular readers are yet!

Your answers were beautiful! I'm glad you did it! I've never done a gratitude journal before but I can see how it could be so beneficial!

great thankful list! it's easy to be complacent about all three of those things in the chaos of daily living - but they really are tremendous blessings, aren't they?!

you are in my prayers!
