Hump Day Thanks

Most people are thankful for Wednesdays, because it represents the half-way point of their work week.  Monday seems eons away, and Friday has begun to be seen in the distance.  People seem to be a little more productive, trying to get things accomplished in order to have things ready to leave at the office for the weekend.  On this Hump Day before Thanksgiving Day, I am thankful for:

• Friends who share their cooked specialties (like smoked turkey) with me, sometimes even making a special out-of-their-way trip to my house
• Daughters who cook the entire dinner for the entire family
• Family who gather for yet another holiday-yet-not-exactly-traditional meal
• Granddaughters who have a great imagination when it comes to playing kitchen and doll house
• Granddaughters who manage to spy the one Christmas present that you forgot to hide, even though it was up on a shelf in your closet or behind closed doors on the pie safe
• Baby girls who are content to sometimes sit in a play yard and happily occupy themselves while the adults are busy getting stuff done
• Clean laundry and clean sheets on the bed

Wednesdays are a day to be thankful, even if it's just because it's Wednesday.  But if we really just stop and think about it, there are so many more things for which to be thankful on a Wednesday!
