  5. Thankful that we were with Grandpa Dave, Grandma Lynn, Aunt Katie and Uncle James, who helped to take care of all of us while we were sick. 
  6. Thankful that Papa Dave and Uncle James didn't get the illness (sorry Grandma Lynn and Kate).

  15. Thankful we have a fabulous school where our girls go while we go to those great jobs.  
  16. Thankful for the teachers at that school who love our girls and teach them so much about the world.  
This list seems short.  There are so many other things we are thankful for.  Those were just a few of the things that we could be thankful for in the past week....and there were plenty more that are going unmentioned.  

We are blessed.  

We are thankful.
