Thankful

I am so thankful and since it is Thanksgiving time I thought I would post about all the things I am thankful for.

I am thankful for my family. My husband is a great, strong man. He provides everything we need and then some. He lets me stay home to take care of our kids. He loves me, for me.

I am thankful for my kids. They are great kids. I have been so blessed to have them. They keep me smiling everyday.

I am thankful for my Mom. She is the strongest, most beautiful woman I know. She is who I want to be, but don't think I will ever make it. She has been there for me thru everything! I seriously don't know what I would ever do without her.

I am thankful for my Dad. He is such a strong man with such wisdom. He is so smart and always has great advise. He puts things back in perspective when I get crazy. He can always make me see the great things in the crappy situations.

I am thankful for my brothers have become more like friends over the last few years. We have grown past all the childish fighting and have really truly became friends. We can talk and joke and just have fun. You know it is great when you go to hang up from a phone conversation and he says "love ya sis". That just melts my heart.

I am thankful for my nieces and nephews are great little kids. They are all growing up so fast. They are too cute.

I am thankful for my friends, my true friends. In the last few months I have found out who they are. They have been great and they have supported me. We may not have the time to always get together and talk, but we know that the other one will always be there.

I am thankful to God. He has provided for me, even when I am not as faithful as I should be. Even tho I can backslide, He is still there. I think He has brought one of my friends back in my life to help me to appreciate Him more. She is a strong Christian woman and isn't afraid to speak about God. She gives Him all the credit for everything in her life and I admire her for her faith. Even when most people would give up, she gives thanks to God and trusts that He will pull her thru it. God is so awesome. He has just given to me a great life and I am so thankful for that.

I am sure there are a lot more things I am thankful for, but those are just at the top of the list. I would love to keep going, but the list would be so long and I have 3 kids tearing apart my house. lol

Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow!! Make sure you think about the things you are thankful for and yes that includes all the great food!! lol
