Today I am thankful for the opportunity to serve. I am helping with a tree for the Festival of Trees, which I encourage you all to attend to help benefit Primary Children's Medical Center. I volunteered to make the tree skirt. Today it is finally complete. Take a look.
I'd like to send a special thank you to my mother who tirelessly assisted me in this project and this blog for giving me the inspiration.
Thankfully I only burned myself once with the hot glue gun. That is a miracle in itself.

I'm all about posting more frequently on my blog. In honor of the season I am going to post one thing I am thankful for each day.
Today I am thankful for a job that allows me time to work on homework. It is such a blessing in my life. My job isn't exactly one you could apply for it. I know it is a miracle to have it and I will forever be thankful.
