Thank You God!!!!

There's so much in life we take for granted. In our busy lives, its so hard to stop and be thankful for what we have as we chase after everything in the world we want. This year personally for me has been a year of introspection. As I reflect on my life today I just wanted to thank God for all that he has blessed me with. I have parents that are unbelievably good to me, that have loved me more unconditionally than perhaps even I could ever have loved myself. I have a gem of a sister who is there for me through thick and thin, although younger her wisdom and strength are inspirational to me every day. I have in-laws that treat me more like a daughter than a daughter-in-law and care for me more than I could have ever imagined. I have friends that I can share my happiness and sadness with and count on to be there for me any time of the day, without question. Most importantly I have a husband who is truly a blessing from God. He has saved me in every way possible, taught me so much in just a few years, loved me like no other and embraced me with a wide open heart. I definitely must have done something good in my previous life to deserve being surrounded by such good people. I have health, wealth (ok so its a small one), a great job (especially in this economy), a great home (finally a place to permanently call home), and everything else I could really need in life. If I tried, I'm sure I could find things to complain about but in reality I have a happy, healthy family that is very close to me and its all that I would ask for if there is just one thing I could have in life.

Thank you God for blessing me with the most important things in life. I am truly greatful for all that life has brought my way: every person, every experience, every challenge and every comfort :)

A very Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!!!!!
