30 Days of Thanks

I saw on facebook that there are many posts going around about giving "30 Days of Thanks."
Basically, one post per day of something you are thankful for during the entire month of November.
I try to be thankful all year round and multiple times per day, but I like the idea of actually making the things you are thankful for verbal.
It also reminds you how important it is to give thanks for things you have and appreciate in your life.
Now....I have a pup on bed rest (yes...a 100lb Lab on bed rest. I'm sure this will result in another post about the pup in the future) with a torn ACL that will be having some major surgery within the next week and a half, so I'm not going to have time to blog every single day about what I am thankful for.

I am posting daily on FB, since I can do that easily from my phone and I usually keep up with family and friends daily there anyways.
However, I am going to try to split up my 30 days of thanks into two blog posts with 15 days in each one.
I think maybe next year we may do a small box with cards within my family and then read them all and possibly share them at the end of the month. Its just an extra way to make sure we are all doing our part to thank God and those who are important in our lives for all that they do for us and how they make us feel.


I also found a  website about this trend.
