My friends and family:

For the month of November, I am going to try to post something every day that I’m grateful for.  Today, I don’t really have time to explain why I want to do this.  It’s coming out of our covenant group Bible study, where we just discussed the importance of practicing the discipline of gratitude.  Hopefully soon I’ll be able to flesh it out more than that.  But, in the attempt to get going and not let that stop me,  here’s my first post!

Daily Gratitude #1
Today, I am grateful for the safe arrival of my family – Mom, Chris, Katie, Addie, and Alex – to Alaska, having survived the long drive up the Alcan in the winter.  Welcome home!

P.S. Would you like to join me?  Blog it!  Facebook it!  Twitter it (even though I don’t read Twitter)!  E-mail me!  Pray it!  Anyway you want, please join me.
