I have so much to be thankful for today. First being my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I don't even want to think about where I'd be without Him. Next, my amazing husband...I love him more every day and I am so blessed to have him in my life. I look forward to growing old with him...someday! LOL And then there's Gracie. I can't even describe how much I love our daughter. Then there are my sisters...I love them so much! And I wish I could've been with them today...but more about that in a minute. I have the most wonderful friends and I'm so thankful for them. Some I've known for a very long time, others are only for a short while, but all of them are such a blessing to me. I'm very thankful for our pastor and the church family we've come to love. We have a beautiful home, Chris has a good job and a great boss. We have our health. So many things to be thankful for today.
This morning, I called my sister Carol to wish her a Happy Thanksgiving. And found out that the lump in her breast that we were so afraid of was only a cyst. Breast cancer is a very real fear for us, so this news brought happy tears and gave new meaning to the word "thanksgiving".
This afternoon, my sister Kristie called me to let me know that she's getting married. I'm so very happy for her! She's been through so much crap in her personal life and she definitely deserves to be happy. I wish her and Chuck the best and can't wait to see her walk down the aisle.
These are just a few of the people and things that I find myself thankful for today. How about you? Have you counted your blessings lately?
