I’m keeping a running list of thanksgiving–30 Days of Thanksgiving to be exact–for the month of November. I’m forcing myself to remember Thanksgiving is a choice, a way of thinking and a way of life. It’s more than just a day at the end of the month of November. I’m inviting you to please join me. Who cares if it’s already November 5th, jump in anyway! If you blog, leave a link in the comments. If you don’t leave your list in the comments.

If you have not signed up to receive The Littlest Way in your email inbox…ya need to now.
(Oh wait, I’m reading Dr Ray Guarendi and he says don’t end with an addenda like “Now.” Instead I should say it like this, “You need to sign up to receive The Littlest Way by email and if I have to tell you again…” He doesn’t really mention my blog, but you get the point of what he’s saying.)
My Advent Devotional will be a FREE ebook for blog subscribers.
I thought about selling it as an ebook but then decided not to. I know how stressful this time of year can be…money, family, sugar highs and lows, turkey buying, tree decorating…I am really proud of this devotional and I want you to have it–stress free.
So sign up (CLICK HERE) and be on the lookout. It will be released before the end of the month.

It’s already day 6 here – but relying on the fact that God has a different notion of time! Giving thanks for our Women’s Bible Study. This little group has run for many years and we still keep meeting despite many challenges. Today’s sharing was lovely

Even with only one kid, I know how precious #62 is! I’m loving your list — it keeps me on the lookout for things in my own life for which I should be consciously thankful. First up: a husband who would take a day off to drive me 5 hours each way to pick up our new rescue Siamese cat and that cat taking only 3 days to become fully comfortable in our household!
