It's hard to know where to start, sometimes. As last year was so much more full of gratitude than 2009, so this year is more full than last year.

"I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart;

Oh give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name;
Make known His deeds among the peoples.

Seek the LORD and His strength;
Seek His face continually.
Psalm 105:1-4
