Clean House

This Sunday I was sent home from church to clean the house until it was spotless. I had 3 hours of cleaning the house. I scrubbed the counter tops, emptied the dishwasher, cleaned the backyard, picked up poop, dusted the living room, cleaned the living room, vacuumed the whole house, organized the computer area, made every ones bed, changed the laundry folded it and put it away. Now I know how mom feels. I also put little card for every one that said stuff like I made your bed Abby, and a little candy taped to it. I then looked at the clean house and thought. I am so lucky to have a house, and a family and then I turned some church music on to listen to. Then a couple tears came down my check as I saw Lincoln come home to tell me about what he learned. When Mom came through the door she said she missed me at church and said that her lesson went great.

This Thanksgiving I hope that you remember the things you have and are grateful for. Think of your family and what others don't have. Remember that your Heavenly Father gives you blessings and watches over you and loves you. He also loves others that aren't going to have a big thanksgiving dinner. Think of the things you can do to be better and not be selfish and always want more and more. I hope all of you have a Happy Thanksgiving.
