Well, ladies, it is Thanksgiving time and I did this post last year and received some amazing answers.
I will begin by telling you all what I am thankful for.
I am thankful for my family. I am thankful that we are all healthy, that we all have wonderful things happening in our lives and that we love the Lord and each other.
I am thankful that I am 40 years old and still have all of my Grandparents living except for my Grandpa Jim who passed away 16 years ago.
I am grateful for my Aunt who I love to the core of my being. She has been so strong during my Grandmother's bout with lung cancer and I thank her for taking on the responsibilities she has. I am coming home soon to help you.
I am thankful for my friends and for their love and loyalty. Some of them old and some of them new.
I am thankful for this blog and for the people it has brought into my life. I have learned so much about courage and faith through all of you. I know that some of you ladies will be my friends for all my life. You know who you are :)
