Today I am thankful for the manager at Olive Garden in Carrollton, Ga. We ate here on 1/1/15 with my dad. He is very allergic to garlic. The manager took it upon herself to make up a whole new batch of sauce with no garlic. She made sure his food was prepared with great taste and no garlic in sight. She was very sweet. Most of the time you dont find this kind of thoughtfulness. She just didnt know how special she made that day since it was our first meal together in 20 years. I am going to go by there and thank her in person again. When someone makes a point to go out of their way for you make sure to thank them. You never know what that thanks will mean to a person.

Day 1 of 365 Days of Thanks
Today January 1, 2015 I give thanks for my father Johnie Thompson. He drove almost 6 hours to see us and was only able to stay for few hours and had to make the long drive back home. I give thanks that even though 20 years went by with him not knowing what happened to me that he never gave up. He never forgot me and continued to have faith we woild see each other again. God has given us a great start for 2015. I cant wait to meet the rest of my family.
Round 2 of 365 Days of Thanks
Ok everyone if you have read through my posts you know that I tried to do 365 days of thanks last year. Well lets just say life got in the way and it fell by the wayside. My New Years Resolution is to complete 365 days this year. I am behind because today is Jan 3rd but better late than never. Hope you enjoy this and hopefully it will help you think of what your are thankful for and give praise to the one that makes it all happen.
Lord, thank you for each person that reads this post. I pray that you will bless them and their families. I give thanks for the things you have done and continue to do for me and my family.
