Mama Called The Doctor And The Doctor Said


I took 3 children to visit the doctor today. I am thankful for modern medicine. I am thankful for the country in which I live so that I had the option to take my children to see a competent doctor. I am thankful that I was able to get a prescription for the medication that they need to get well. I am thankful for Walgreen's drive-thru pharmacy so I didn't have to drag 3 sick children into the store to get the prescriptions filled.

Brand Spankin' New


I am thankful for today.
A brand new day in a brand new year.
It only happens once in every 365 days.
I am thankful for all the opportunity it brings.
I am thankful for the reflection it allows.
I am thankful for the hope it gives.
Hope of doing better this year than I did in the last.
A fresh slate.
I am thankful for the choices that lie ahead.
I pray I will make the most of the newness that is before me.
Be the best me I can be.
