I am Grateful for:

• my wife, because she is patient and understanding with me;
• my wife, because she is fun to be with and brings me joy in our companionship;
• my wife, because she is a wonderful mother to our children;
• my child, who sets an example of faithfulness in taking the initiative to serve others;
• another child, who sets an example of faithfulness by constantly striving in righteous habits;
• another child, who is teachable and is trying hard to do and be better;
• two other children, who are kind and thoughtful of others;
• my daughter, Emily, who brings me joy whenever I think of her, and who is an example of faith, friendship, and joy amidst suffering;
• another child, who loves me and works hard to be a great sibling;
• my neighbors, who strive to live their beliefs and serve others;
• my wife's family;
• my parents;
• my siblings;
• ancient prophets who have given us the scriptures;
• modern day prophets, who give us guidance, testimony, and witness of the Savior;
• great co-workers, whose dedicated service to their jobs inspire me to give an honest, hard day's work';
• the many temporal things I have thanks to the kindness of God, family, and friends--I know I don't merit the things I have any more than the next person, and I cherish them as gifts and stewardships;
• the Earth and its many beauties;
• a great job, where I can serve others, and that helps me provide for me family while still giving me time for them;
• neighbors, teachers, and adults that serve my children at school, church, and other places;
• my health;
• and many other blessings.

I feel humble as I consider how blessed I am.  And this helps me move away from selfishness and pride.
