Every single day and every single night I thank God for the abundantly wonderful blessings in my life. While life has it's up and downs, there is much to be thankful for, always. My inner optimist has always been able to find the silver lining in life. With Thanksgiving on the horizon, here are the things I'm thankful for this season.
1. I am thankful for a healthy baby girl. She is perfect.
2. I am thankful that, despite three of us being sick, baby girl has managed NOT to get sick. Praise!
3. I am thankful for my parents who have given their time, love, and money to help us the past few weeks as we adjust to life as a family of 4.
4. I am thankful my mom has mad decorating skills, because my house looks so much hipper now.
5. I am thankful for a house to live in, a job for my husband, and food on our table. Many don't have these essentials.
6. I am thankful for my family group of friends. They have lavished us with such blessings over the years and in the past few weeks.
7. I am thankful my sister lives close and that we get to celebrate our holidays together, with all the traditions we've always known.
8. I am thankful for the true wonder of breastfeeding. I am thankful that we have it mastered and that angel baby has benefited from all the immunities she has received because of it.
9. I am thankful for a God that consistently shows me love, mercy, and grace. Without you I am nothing.
