Happy Thanksgiving
9:23:00 AM
Thanksgiving is such a wonderful holiday to celebrate the things we are most grateful for in our lives. So in the spirit of being thankful, as for me, my top 5 include:
- God. I am thankful for a God who meets me in every circumstance of my life, personally.
- My husband. For my husband who loves me and our kids unconditionally, works so hard and does so much to give us a very comfortable life.
- My kids. And even though my kids might bring me to the brink of insanity some days, I would go to the ends of the Earth and without a blink die for them. They are quite literally my heart in the flesh and I wouldn't trade them for ANYTHING in the world.
- Parents. I don't know if I say it enough, but I am so thankful for my mother and mother-in-law who help me out so much with watching the boys so that I can have a career on top of being mommy. It is such a blessing to have their help, because without them it would not be possible.
- Country. I am proud to live in a country where I am free to practice my religion and to have a voice about it without fear of persecution or something more horrific. To be able to walk about my daily life without fear is something I do not take for granted.
Other things I am thankful for that fall under the BIG 5 include my friends (you guys help me survive!), coffee (necessary for life), mascara, Sundays, candles, bacon, sunsets, my bed, and a nice glass of wine. Of course, I could go on and on and on, but I think I will leave you with that for now.
And one more thing. I am so thankful for YOU! To anyone out there who takes the time to read my simple thoughts, thank you. I so appreciate you! Have the happiest Thanksgiving!
