My first Thankful Thursday

So, this is my first Thankful Thursday post, although it will be short because I have a half awake baby in the swing and have to get ready for work yet!

First, I am thankful to Erika for giving me the go ahead to copy off of her blog and this idea!

I am thankful for Aunt Mary, without whom, Ron and I would never see the outside world without kids (including a recent wonderful dinner at El Camino)! She has watched the kids countless numbers of times and since my parents aren't around, this is a BIG help. She is always there for us and the kids love her and Uncle Mike.

I am also thankful for all the other people who help us with the kids including: Gretchen, neighbor Beth, neighbor Kelly, Aunt Nancy and Larry and some neighborhood babysitters. Thank you, thank you, thank you for taking on the challenges of five children!

I am thankful that our kids are good kids and not like those kids you see on Supernanny!

I am thankful for many other things, but have to cut it short and save for next week because the baby is full force screaming now! Until then....
