Lots to be Thankful for...

I should be working however this is what I feel that I want to do so as most of you know I usually do what I want lol. I work better under pressure so thats why I wait to do some things :)

I thought that I would write about what I am thankful for. At times our lives seem so busy where we forget to thank or appriciate the little things in life that matter the most but seem to put on the back burner.

First and formost I am thankful for Jesus dying on the cross for our sins so that we can have an ever lasting life. I know that there have been times in my life where I took that for granted, where I said and did things that were not of God and for that I asked for forgivness as God said ask and ye shall be given. I thank God for his understanding and for his love. For loving me no matter where I was in life and no matter how much I was so undiserving. Thats the thing about Gods Grace is that we do not deserve it, but He is so willing to give it. And no expectations but to live life for Him, to be His servant, to have a servants heart, to worship only Him and to be a diciple for Him. So today I am thankful for my relationship with my heavly Father!

Second I am thankful for my husband. I know many of you reading this know our history and our past. I know some of you even thought we wouldnt make it. But almost 11 years later and just shy 5 months of a 7 year marriage we are still making it strong. This marriage has taught me alot in life and that no matter the ups or down as long as God is our foundation we can litterally make it through everything. No we are not perfect, we fuss at times, we dont get along all the time (lol) but thats the thing with Neal and I we dont fake it, we have an issue we talk about it and work it out then we are fine. Neither of us hold grudges because that would just make is resent each other. We just pray and ask God to heal whatever bothering us and whatever we need to do to make things better we both try.I thank God for the man Neal has become and the man is will be. I thank God for giving me someone that loves me for me and my flaws.

Third I am thankfor for my family, my crazy, insane, wild, funny family. I know everyone can have a weird bunch in their family well I am not afraid to say it. Its known that we do lol. But I love each and eveyone. We may not all agree or get along but family is family.

Fourth my friends... I have some of the best friends ever! My momma always told me that when you get older you most likely wont have the friends that you had growing up, you grow up, go different paths and thats ok your not intended to walk the same path, she said as you grow older you will be able to count the number of true good friends on your hands. Which is so true! I have the most supportive friends, understanding, prayer warriors, pationate , carring God sent friends. I never thought that I could be as lucky as I am with my group of friends. I am truly blessed by each of you and those that are reading this are some of my most treasured friends as you have prayed and saught God during all the infertility issues. So from the bottom of my heart Thank you!

So in general I am thankful for every living breathing thing in my life from my furbabies to my family! I am blessed beyond words. I look forward to what God has in store for Neal and I future and I look forward to being able to share my journey with all my loved ones, friends and family!!

With love and HAPPY HAPPY THANKSGIVING
