Grateful and Thankful

November 29, 2011 |

for this sweet boy, who thinks he’s a dinosaur but loves to cuddle

for this little girl, who amazes me with the things she thinks of and cracks me up

for this tiny guy, who I can’t wait to meet and kiss and know

for this man, who I feel so blessed to have met and be able to call my husband. Who makes me laugh, gets my sense of humor, tries to sneak in every blog picture he’s around for, plays with the kids, cooks dinner (and has done pretty much everything else, recently), believes in me, and just is the best. I love you, Doug.

for God, who has blessed me, forgiven me, loved me. While at times doubted his plan (it’s happened a lot recently), things have ALWAYS been even better than I could have asked for. for my faith, which has gotten me through both the darkest, and the most joyful moments of my life.

for the food we eat, for our garden being somewhat successful.

for our jobs. Both Doug and I are employed and wow, that is something to be thankful for!
for all our material things, but really, we would be just as happy without them.
