Day 5 of Giving Thanks

Today I am ever grateful for the man by my side ... I am so glad I met my wonderful husband 4 1/2 years ago and are heading toward 3 years of marriage ... He is loving, caring, sweet and would do anything to make me happy!  He makes me laugh, he cries with me, and he even takes care of me when I am sick ... He does so much to provide for us and works so hard.  I am inspired by him as a teacher ... a job many are leaving and yet he is such a great role model for the young minds he molds!  Thank you for all you do Matthew Parker!  I love you!

Day 4 of Giving Thanks

I am ever thankful for a good night's sleep after a very rough evening / night with my back last night ... and for the extra hour of sleep I was able to get.

Day 3 of Giving Thanks

Today I am ever thankful and grateful for my best friend and Siamese twin Susie Meredith!  Most people don't get to have the same best friend for over 20 years! I am one of those very lucky people.  Her family has always treated me like I was one of them and no matter where the world takes us I always know I can pick up the phone and it will be like there is no distance or time between us.

Thank you Susie for being such a wonderful best friend and for being there for me through everything!

Day 2 of Giving Thanks

This morning I was thinking about what I am thankful and so many things crossed my mind ... because I have so much to be thankful for!

But today I am especially thankful for my 2 little sisters.  I grew up with one of them and am now getting to watch the baby grow up and it has been such a blessing!  I wanted a little sister so bad and God blessed with me to grow up with ... and now be best friends with!  I never asked for the baby sister, but I truly couldn't imagine life without her.  She has been such a blessing to our family and so much fun!

Casey Jo and Emma Grace ... I am so thankful for you!  (And I'm so glad you weren't brothers ;) ... jk ... maybe)

What are you thankful for today?

30 Days of Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is really all about giving thanks for the many blessings we have in our lives ... This really should be a daily thing, but most of us don't stop to think about it often enough.  I'm pretty horrible about it myself ... so this year I am devoting November to giving thanks!


What things are you thankful for this year?

Apologies

Okay, so I am sorry I gave up on my productivity blogging ... To be honest, I guess that doesn't say much about my level of productivity, but honestly I just had a lot going on and kept forgetting about it!

So sorry folks!
