Feeling thankful

I am here at work today eating my lunch and am feeling really thankful for what I have. Yesterday, Harley had a therapy appointment. (she is ADD) While sitting in the office waiting for our turn. I witnessed a pretty sad site. It broke my heart. There was a mother of 6 children 5 small ones with her and then the older one having the appointment. They were all dressed in old hand me downs that had rips and tears in them. Some were like wild animals and would not sit still. A couple with out shoes. One little boy was sick and was sleeping in a chair. I noticed his shoes worn out and a little big but were Dora the explorer. From what I could tell he had a bit older sister that I am sure they came from. I am so glad that John and I can provide a good life for our 4 wonders in life. Just seeing a family like that makes me thank GOD for what he has blessed me in my life. Now on a lighter note the thought that did run through my mind after I teared up was, (if anyone watched the last amazing Race may remember this phrase. I believe from the Africa leg of the race.) They just keep breading!!!
