Last night I went to sleep with my window open, listening to one of the most pleasant sounds for sleeping—the sound of steady rain. That might not seem like a big thing to you, but rain in November is almost unheard of here. And the next time I go to sleep to the sound of rain will probably be in April or May next year. It would be wrong not to note it and thank God for it, don’t you think?

What are you thankful for today?
I’ll be back this evening (late) to add any more thanksgiving posts I find (or that you point me to). As more people participate, it gets more likely that I’ll make mistakes in my posting, so if I miss your post or mess up a link, please tell me. And remember, if you miss a day or two, you’ll need to give me a heads up on your next thanksgiving post.
Do you want to participate, too? You’ll find instructions here for the ways both bloggers and nonbloggers can join in the thanksgiving.
