What are you thankful for?

I am thankful for my parents. They do so much for our family. They help watch the kids when my husband and I have to work, they fix things if they break, sew things that have holes, they're always there to listen and give sound advice. My dad is T-Bird Huck! He brought us up on good music and continues to jam. My mom is always there by his side. They have married 40+ years. They are role models for a strong devoted marriage, integrity and perseverance. They have given themselves again and again,unselfishly. We are blessed to have them and their love. Tomorrow is never promised and we are grateful for every day.
