I am thankful for:

• My god
• My children
• My husband
• My home
• The beautiful weather outside, even the rain
• The hospital bed that mom was given, such a help
• My daughter, the best helper ever
• The fact that today is our last day of school, lol
• My stimulus check, that should be in by Friday, hopfully
• The fact that I still have a little money left over after I go grocery shopping
• My friends here on the blog, such wonderful people you all are
• My friends off the blog, such blessings too
• My chickens, with the price of eggs now days, glad they're here
• That all my bills are paid, thank you Jesus, it's such a struggle sometimes
• So much more to list. God is good!

This was in my inbox this morning and I thought it rang soooooo true.  So I am very thankful for the ability to homeschool too.  ( I copied it since it couldn't be seen)

Mary Had a Little Lamb

Mary had a little lamb,  his fleece was white as snow.

And everywhere that Mary went, the Lamb was sure to go.

He followed her to school each day, Twasn't even in the rules.

He made the children laugh and play, to have a Lamb at school.

And then the rules all changed one day,  illegal it became.

To bring the Lamb of God to school, or even speak his name.

Everyday got worse and worse, and days turned into years.

Instead of hearing children laugh, we heard gun shots and tears.

What must we do to stop the crime, thats in our schools today?

Lets let the Lamb of God back in the schools, to teach our kids to pray.
