Before we head out to celebrate this day with our family I wanted to list some reasons and things to be thankful for this year...
- I am thankful for our families, they have been so supportive and helpful in so many ways this year. Both Alex and I have been blessed to have such wonderful parents, who are still together after over thirty years, still love each other and show us by example how to be good, honest and respectful people.
- I am thankful for my wonderful husband who gives his all everyday to do great in school, find a career and help me here at home. I am thankful that he has been able to be home with me to feel Baby O. move and experience all of these joys alongside me.
- I am thankful for my sisters. I really don't know how people make it through life without one...they are always there for me and I feel so lucky to have three 'built-in' best friends! As our family grows I look forward to LARGER family get together's with more nephews and nieces!
- I am SO thankful for our growing little baby!!! I am thankful that he or she is healthy, I am thankful that I am healthy! I can't believe that next year at this time we will have an 8 month old baby! We are both so excited and just gleam every day with pride!
- I am thankful for health. I am thankful that we are all healthy and able. A few aches and pains here and there but overall we are all wonderful.
- I am thankful that we have a nice place to live, food, clothes and basic necessities. This alone is one big thing to be thankful for, I know there are so many people and families out there with so much less. The things above are an extra bonus!
I know tonight when we all sit down to dinner I will have that feeling of pure happiness again, as I do every year!
I wish everyone has a great holiday season!
