In my endevor to become more thankful, last night I tried to think of things I was thankful for about my wife and there was really nothing I could come up with which is sad. Some of it could have been my mood because she had done a few things yesterday that disheartened me but this morning I was able to pick out two characteristics of our relationship I was thankful for.
The characteristics of my wife that I am thankful for today are 1) her humor. she does have a good sense of humor when she's in the mood for it...or rather, she has MY sense of humor. She gets my quirky jokes and can laugh about the same things. That's a good connection we have when the moons align and I really am thankful for that. That's one of the things that attracted me to her in the beginning. 2) She was doing a good job helping our son with his homework this morning. She's horrible at helping him with his math but today it was his geography and she did a good job. She's not always patient, but today she was patient with him. So I am thankful that I was able to be thankful because when I went to bed I sure didn't feel like there was much to be thankful for in my relationship. I'll keep my eyes open for other instances!
