Day 9, 10, 11

Today I am catching up on days 9, 10, and 11.

Day 9: I am thankful for the roof I have over my head and my families head.

While waiting for the bus today Ariana and I was waiting in a friends car. The little car in front of us was just sitting on the side of the road, which is often seen and ignored. While my friend and I were talking a man steps out of the passenger seat with no shoes on and very srungy looking. He grabs his boots and puts them on and gets into the driver seat. The younger lady in the back gets out of the backseat and puts her shoes on and gets back into the car. My friend and I looked at each other trying to determine why they were there. After several minutes of watching them we determined they were homeless and living in their car. It is bitter cold outside at night, getting into the mid 20's. I cant imagine how cold they were sleeping in their car.

Day 10: I am thankful for the time I have with my family. We went to the mall yesterday for dinner and a bit of shopping. It was nice to get out and enjoy each others company. We are a very busy family and do not get a chance to step away from life.

Day 11: I am thankful for our veterans. For the men and women who leave their families to serve the country. The men and women who die for our country. I am also thankful for the families who support the ones they love who serve in the military.
