The Lambert's ABC Thankful List


". . . and that ye live in thanksgiving daily, for the many mercies and blessings which he doth bestow upon you." Alma 34:38

Last night for family home evening, we made an ABC thankful list. We had a good time coming up with things that we are thankful for with each letter in the alphabet. I'm sure that we missed many things that should be mentioned, however, I am quite happy with the list. I just need to add, before I share the list; Tess took this job very seriously, she was so cute, she was really trying hard to be serious with the things that she is grateful for. However, Clayn & Parker were being boys & shouting out things like movies, toys, every food item under the sun & this was making Tess a little angry. So, I must add that I was very grateful for Tess, because at least now, we have a somewhat decent list. Here goes:

A -Air, Apples, Autumn, Animals, America
B - Bread, Brownie, Brothers, Books, Bubble Bathes, Blankets, Bed BYU, Book of Mormon, Bedtime

So, there you have it, our list. Perfect it's not, complete no way, but a great start it is. We had a great time coming up with all of these things. We have been blessed with so much. We have been blessed to live in this great country & to celebrate our freedoms, to have our Savior in our lives with his perfect gospel. We are not perfect, but, we are here to live & learn & try to become better people. We are truly a blessed people, and we have much to be thankful for.
