Thanksgiving Blessings

I am very grateful this year for my many blessings, which are too numerous to count really.  Briefly though, I'm grateful for and love all of my family.  My children and grandchildren are a joy and blessing.  I'm thankful, especially, for having been born in this great country, to enjoy the many freedoms that it affords me.  I pray it will continue to be the "Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave."

I'm grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ that has been restored to the earth in these latter-days. I'm grateful that I have had the opportunity to fully participate in the blessings the church brings into my life, and the lives of my husband and children.  I pray that our children will never take for granted the wonderful blessing that we gave to them to be born under the covenant, by parents sealed in the temple for time and all eternity.  We were the pioneers in the gospel in our family and the greatest gift, as parents, to our children is the gospel.  My testimony to each of you is that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is Christ's church on earth today.  I'm grateful for a living prophet, even Thomas S. Monson, who guides and directs the Lord's church.  May we all endure to the end to be able to be with our Savior and Heavenly Father in their Celestial Kingdom as a family is my prayer always.

I love and appreciate each one of you.

Thank you for sharing your gratitude and your testimony.
I am grateful you and Ken joined the church so I could find and marry the most wonderful man (Brian) and be blessed with such wonderful inlaws!

Love you!
