Thankful

I am thankful for.....

~My children. I truely believe that this is what I'm supposed to do in life.. raise my children. It's my calling.. my destiny. I was made for this. They bring me so much joy.. Words really cannot describe how thankful I am for them.

~My husband. I'm so greatful for him and who he is. I'm greatful for his job and for letting me stay at home with my children. Thank you.

~My family. I love you all.

~My home. It's not perfect. I may not even like it. But it keeps me warm/cool and dry..It keeps me safe.

~My health.

~My backache, because it means that I can carry my baby all day long. It means that I can move around. It means that I can "feel".

~My messy house, because it means we are able to afford the things we want/need. Because my toddler tornado (or HERricane as Mamaw Dell calls her) is smart enough to play toys and strategically place items wherever she feels like.

~My education, because it means that if I need to or want to, I can get a good paying job.

And so much more. All too often we forget that the things we have in life aren't guaranteed. Everything these days is a luxury. I'm thankful that I'm wise enough to know this.
