Thankful!!!

Telling someone "thank you" when you are with them often, doesn't seem to come naturally for most people. Telling them so they believe it is even more difficult yet.

One my husband's love languages is words of appreciation. This is not natural at all for me. He got home from work last night at 7:15. Did I thank him for working so hard for our family? Nope! Back in the "olden" days I might have complained that he had to work so long. Thankfully I no longer do that.

Today I'm leaving a piece of paper out all day long. I'm going to jot down things that I'm thankful for. Nothing fancy, just a scribbled on piece of paper. I'll give him that piece of paper tonight. Some of the things I'm grateful for often drive me crazy too (his "childish" ways often make me laugh, but sometimes irritate me when I want him to be serious). Today I'm choosing to be grateful for everything about him.

Make the choice today. Be THANKFUL!!!

This works for me. Find other tips over at We are THAT Family!
