THANKFUL THURSDAY

One of the best things about blogging.....is Thankful Thursday. If you haven't made this a part of your weekly-stop-and-be-grateful-for-the-blessings-in-your-life.....will you begin today?

Today, like so many other days, I am thankful for the hope we find in God.

I am thankful for the love of family.

I am thankful that today is held in the palm of God's Hands.

I am thankful for Hailey.

Hailey is our third foster granddaughter. She is a child with Autism...significantly affected by this mysterious disorder. Yet, her mother, the adopted daughter of our heart, Diana, is a tireless and relentless advocate for Hailey and simply, an outstanding mother.   I am so thankful that Hailey has Diana!

The band Five For Fighting has made a video for Autism Speaks.  Every time someone watches the video, they donate $.49 to Autism Speaks.

I am thankful for your willingness to view this video--and help make a difference.  If you can, please pass this along for all of the mothers and fathers, grandmas and grandpas who will never hear "I love you" for their beloved children with autism.  

Blessings!
