Happy Thanksgiving!
As I sit down and think of the many things that I am thankful for, I am amazed at how truly blessed I am.
*First, I am thankful for my wonderful husband. He is so good to me and the calm in my worry filled life. He is a great father, especially since the kids are growing up and wanting to go out and play more with him. I love how he teaches them gospel principles just around the dinner table while we are eating. It reminds me of my own Dad and how much I love and miss him.
*I am thankful for my 4 beautiful children. I think that I take for granted how perfect they came into the world.
*I'm thankful for my family far away from here. You don't realize how much you love and appreciate them until you are far away. I treasure all of my memories and traditions that I had growing up. I'm also thankful to Ryan's family for making him who he is today! Such a wonderful son can only come from wonderful parents.
*I am thankful that Ryan has a job. I am thankful that he dutifully goes everyday even though he doesn't like it that much. He does it for us. For that I am thankful.
This list could go on to include even the smallest of things. But I wanted you to know that I am truly thankful to be alive, to have the gospel and know from whom all of my blessings came.
