Being Thankful

We all have things to be thankful for...... some more than others; some bigger than others. To each of us, what we're thankful for is important to us.

What am I thankful for?

- A loving, forgiving, and always present God. Even when I'm not the most loving, forgiving, understanding person I should be.

- My Husband. A wonderful man. Loving father. The perfect life mate for me. Yes, I might complain at times but what wife doesn't complain about her husband every so often. And what husband doesn't complain about his wife.

- My Son. A healthy, loving and full of life little boy. Brings a smile to my face each day.

- My unborn Son. Thankful that my husband and I have no worries trying to have babies and can only imagine the joy this little one will add to our family. The fact that this little one is healthy and growing as he should be.

- My parents and my in-laws. The fact that my husband and I were both blessed with loving parents who are always there to help if we need them. Parents who have set examples of how a marriage should be......a Christian marriage. That life it not always easy but with each other and the strength of God.... you can pull threw anything.

- A job. Hasn't been the easiest this year but it's still there.

- A house over my head.

- This year. This has been a year that has shown my family what's important and what's not. What we can live with and what can be lived without.

That's some of what I'm thankful for.... the most important anyway. What are you thankful for? Hope you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day.
