Thankful Thursday

1. I am thankful for my eyes. With good eyes I have the chance to read a wide range of books.
2. I am thankful for my hands. I can type freely on my new laptop without feeling pain.
3. I am thankful for cameras. Photographs give me a chance to keep up with my granddaughter's growth. gentlerecovery
