history: thankful for my family, thankful to have a roof over my head in these stressful times  I am so thankful for my wife_comma_ and child. I honestly dont know what I would do without them. 
current: Sounds like you have a wonderful family. Some people take it for granted.
next: They really do.. maybe because they have never had to have it rough. We deff learn from the worst events in our life.
