I'm forcing myself to do this. Here is what I'm thankful for:
1. Health insurance.
2. Income.
3. The park.
4. Mom to Mom's Group.
5. My Mom.
6. That I can choose to be thankful.
7. That this too shall pass.
I will not complain, just keeping it real... None the less, God is good.

Ephesians 1:15-21
New King James Version (NKJV)
Prayer for Spiritual Wisdom
15 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, 16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.
Good read. I don't have great wisdom or a witty remark, just enjoyed reading about your "real" emotions and your choice to find something to be thankful for.
