Thanksgiving 2024 - I'm thankful for...

Today is Wednesday, November 6th in the year of our Lord 2024 and it's a great time to talk about thankfulness with Thanksgiving just around the corner in the United States of America.

Every year I start this thread the beginning of the month sometime in November with my favorite Thanksgiving tradition and a prompt to the share what you are thankful. My family has a jar (or two or three) that we fill with candy and nuts with each piece being for a different person, place, or thing we were thankful for. We call it "thankful fors". In recent years we have written them down and filled a notebook with the people, places, and things we are thankful to God for. Some days we have a theme like a favorite meal, places we have been, people we know, books, items around the house, or a few years ago we started drawing Scrabble tiles for several days and did our "thankful fors" starting with the letter drawn. The Scrabble tile draws have made for some great ideas and some bad ones, but mainly it has brought additional laughter to our family time. Smile  This has been our family tradition for over 20 years and I love it so much.

For those in the US, Canada, and other countries that have an official Thanksgiving Day:

  • Do you usually have a traditional Thanksgiving meal (for example in the US - turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, etc.)?
  • Do you have any favorite traditions or memories of Thanksgiving?

For all NarniaWebbers:

  • What are you thankful for this year? 
Today I'm thankful for...
~God the Father
~my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ
~the Holy Spirit
~the Bible
~my family
~the Mod Squad Hug  
~all of the wonderful people here on NarniaWeb! Smile  
~laughter

~books
 
That's just my starter list, more to come in future posts over the next few weeks. Smile
