Obviously, I have given up on posting a “Thankful Thursdays” post every week of the year.
Only a few more weeks of the year and I am behind by about 12 weeks!
Too much catching up for me, life invaded my blogging for a bit these past few months, nevertheless, I am still incredibly thankful for the many things I have in my life!
I received a phone call from my sister-in-law, Carolyn, yesterday.
I enjoy these calls so much, we rarely talk on the phone and she always makes me laugh.
She called to read me something that her 7 year old daughter Grace wrote in school recently.
Do you remember this?
My baby in the hospital with 26 cents lodged in his throat?
This happened about one month ago, and Gracie still had it on her mind.
So much that she wrote this letter to Santa Claus.
Incredibly sweet.
I’m printing this and putting it in Miller’s baby book.
Gracie is such a sweetheart and it’s so hard that she lives at the top of Washington state!
When I asked Carolyn to send me the picture, she also sent me this other letter Grace wrote.
Yay! She loves me too!
And apparently Miley Cyrus!
This week I am thankful for the love of children.
They are simply God’s way of reminding us what is important in this life.
There are so many children just like Gracie who are thoughtful, kind and loving to ALL, a perfect example for us adults!

I love you Gracie and I hope you have a very merry Christmas this year!
