Top ten things I'm so thankful for:
1) My God-his mercy, his grace, his LOVE. I am because he is.
2) My Family- Matt, Drew, Ella, and Lucy- how lucky am I! Two wildly funny munchkins and one perfect innocent baby- and Matt to keep me sane yet drive me crazy :) My soulmate! My amazingingly wonderful and over generous Mom- be lost without her! My sisters- Chandra and Tiffany- can't even count how many times they have saved the day for me. My Dad- gone but never forgotten- made me the stubborn weido that I am. Gosh I LOVE my family.
3) More Group- WOW! Strangers who instantly became friends that are like family to me. People who just love you for who you are- people who actually except you despite your brokenness and screwed up life. Especially our fearless leaders- Doc and Melissa- who have picked me up out of the dirt and encouraged me endless times. I'm so blessed to be part of this group.
4) My extended family- My Grandpa Jack, my aunts and uncles and cousins! And my former inlaws- Bill, Donna, and my Meg- once a family- always a family
5) My coworkers- Lucy, Jamie, Michelle, Kim, and super floats- Laura, Jessica, and Norma- Love you girls- cannot recall a day that I did not laugh at work. This job would suck without you all :)
6) My health- HA HA HA- so my cholesterol may be off the chart bad- and I'm techincally obese- but hey I'm alive and kicking.
7) My house- I'm blessed to have a home- small as it may be- we are snug as a bug. There are so many that don't have that simple luxury as a roof over their head.
8) My job- far from my dream job- but could be sooooo much worse. Pays most of my bills...
9) My past- yup my past. Good times and bad- wouln't be who I am or where I am if it had not happened just how it did.
10) My future- who know what it will bring- a marrige someday to my sweetheart Matt- no more kids- unless Ella gets her way and we take in all the children without a mommy or daddy- BLESS HER SWEET LITTLE HEART- she will share her room and toys. I'm sure there will be happy times, bad days, tragedies, smiles, laughs, sickness, joy beyond belief, some of this some of that- but I will trust God where he leads me (might be angry and kick and scream and try to control every detail- but where he leads me I will eventually let go and follow) Hey at least I'm honest :)
Happy Thanksgiving
