I follow & keep up with several other blogs on a regular basis. Several people have taken time to talk about what they're thankful for. I find that it's perfect timing with Thanksgiving just around the corner! Everyone has something they're thankful for in their lives. I feel blessed to have many things to be thankful for.
*I am thankful to have a loving & forgiving Savior that is so detailed when it comes to my existence!
*I am thankful for my patient & loving husband that the Lord placed in my life specifically for me to take care of and love unconditionally. I cannot imagine my life without Kelly walking beside me, encouraging me to do my best, and loving me regardless!
*I am thankful for my beautiful daughter. She brings more joy & love into my life than I could have ever imagined.
*Walking down stairs.... seeing my husband & daughter playing together.... and having Kaitlynn look up and say "Hey mommy." Definitely one of the sweetest sounds ever!
*My family even though everyone is so widespread between Atlanta, Greenville, Simpsonville, Spartanburg, Charlotte, Hayesville & Denver (MGW)! Being able to spend time with family brings joy to my life!
*I'm thankful for my best girl friends - without them.... well, I just won't go there :o) Just wish we all lived closer together!
*My precious dogs!! I absolutely love Willa Grace & Sadie Mae!
*Being able to stay at home with Kaitlynn. I've been at home now since May 2009. The more I'm at home with my daughter, the more I'm learning that it's definitely a blessing for me! She teaches me so many things about myself and the type of mommy I want to be for her.
It is so easy, especially for me to focus on tough times & negative things when you're having a difficult day or a hard week. The Lord reminds me everyday that each day is a new day and he's not going to give us more than I can handle. Trying to look at everything - good & bad - as a blessing is definitely not the easiest thing, but it's being more & more of a habit. Try and look at today as a complete blessing from the Lord, no matter the circumstance.... no matter the outcome! Today will not happen again - enjoy it, embrace it, and thank our Lord he gave us these days!
