I am thankful for....

I am so thankful this Thanksgiving for so many things, but here are a few.

God
Everything I have to be thankful for is because of Jesus Christ. Even if I lose every earthly thing, I know I will have an eternity in heaven because of what Jesus did for me. That is what I am always most thankful for.
"What is impossible with men is possible with God." Luke 18:30

My Husband
Jeremy is an amazing husband and father and I am so thankful for him.
He works very hard, for our family, and never complains. If you asked him what he wanted for Christmas right now he would say, something for Brady or I, or our family. He is a wonderful provider, and gives us more than we need.
He loves me and knows me and is my best friend. He always makes me laugh. He is the best partner and I can not wait to spend the rest of my life with him.
He is an awesome dad. Brady loves his dad, and I am so grateful that he has such an amazing role model to look up too.

Brady
I always dreamed of being a mom, but I did not think it would be this great. Brady is sweet, loving, smart, healthy, strong, active, funny, and just plain adorable and I am so excited to see the boy he becomes.

Family
My mom is my second best friend, next to Jerm, and I am so glad she and I are so close. She is the reason why I look forward to having a daughter one day. With her and my dad, I have always known how loved I am, and they make me want to be a better parent.
My Dad is so loving and giving, and I always have fun when I am with him. I will always feel like Daddy's little girl, and I love it.
My Brother is crazy but I love him. He always makes me laugh, and is a great brother.
My in-laws are awesome. Everyone complains about their in-laws, but I am so grateful for mine. They help us out so much, and I have always felt part of the family, and loved. When I married Jerm, I gained another mom, dad, and sisters, and you can never have too much loving family members!
All of my fabulous grandparents, and extended family. We don't always get to see them so much, but it is great when we do.

Friends
I have some of the best friends, all around the country. They would do anything for me, and I would do the same, and I love the fun I have with them all.

I am also thankful for a wonderful house, a great city, warm beds, plenty of food, clean water, a healthy family, religious freedom, indoor plumbing, living in America, safety for my family, and sooo much more.

This season I can not help but think of those who are so much less fortunate around the world. Even if we are having a bad day, month, or year, we have so much more than most of the world. So I am thankful and I hope you are too. Happy Holidays!
