I am thankful for squirrels.
Squirrels annoy me sometimes. They eat the expensive food that was meant for the birds and deplete the feeders quickly.This was not our plan when we hung our bird feeders. So for much of the time, I am not really thankful for squirrels, I am stressed by them. However, in effort to not sweat the small stuff, I'm writing a thankful post about them to help me with an attitude adjustment.
Let's see. What is another way to look at this?
--We can afford to feed the squirrels and the birds. When the squirrels eat some of the sunflower seeds, they are not breaking the bank.
--They are cute and can put on quite a show with their acrobatics.
--They provide good entertainment when our cats stalk them through the windows.
--We enjoy the challenge of trying to outsmart them.
--They have to eat, too, especially during these cold winter months.
Squirrels really aren't so bad, I guess. So for the squirrels who helped me remember to not sweat the small stuff, I am thankful
