Things I'm Grateful For:

It seems fitting that I should discuss my gratitude during this month of thanksgiving. There are so many different thigns that I'm grateful for and I hope that I can capture all of them for you.

1. I'm grateful for my family. We're loud, large, and fun. We're happy and we love one another without reserve. I know that I can always count on my family to be there for me. I think I have more true friends in my family than anyone else. I'm thankful for the experiences they've share with me and I know that many more await!

2. I'm grateful for my husband. I don't know where I would stand without him sometimes. He sees me in a light that I cannot see myself. He loves everything about me and strives to show me how important I am (especially when I believe otherwise.) I'm thankful everyday for the joy he brings me.

3. I am grateful for my children. They are such joys to be around. They are so happy and give me so many blessings that I feel so overwhelmed by the love that I receive from them. I can't understand why I am so fortunate to have three amazing children who love me unconditionally. They truly are a treasure beyond worth.



4. I am thankful for the friends who love me and have inspire me throughout our friendship. They are a part of my family and will remain that way forever. I love each of them with my whole heart. You--my dear and darling friends--don't understand how much I truly cherish your friendship and love and how amazing you are. You have blessed my life in so many ways. I am forever and eternally grateful and honored to have had the time to know you. Thank you for being my friends.

5. I am thankful for the gospel and my Lord and Savior. I have been so blessed and honored by the Lord. My heart is full of humility for his never ending love and his sincere knowledge of who I am as an individual. I am so thankful that he has taken the time to know who I am. And I am humbled by his sacrifice on my imperfect behalf. I don't know where I'd be without my faith in eternity and my gospel and Heavenly Fahter. they complete who I am.
