Be Thankful

So what does it mean to be thankful?

Today Marie and I went to Jeff and Britt's ward to help with the children while they gave talks in their new ward. I came away from that meeting with a renewed thankfulness for the things that I have. But when I think about what I have it becomes hard to really list them.

But I will try.

Well I have been a half an hour just typing into excel and I have not even scratched the surface.
I would love to be very specific but that gets hard to do when listing friends or trees and animals.
Here's the starting list:
