Happy Thanksgiving!



I know that I am abundantly blessed and have more than my fair share to be thankful for!
I am thankful for:
My God and my faith in Him and His redeeming love.

My husband who gets  up every day and works hard to provide for our large family. Who loves me in spite of my many faults and goofiness. Who leads our family to know love and serve God with a beautiful witness.
 
My children - Doug, Cassie, Katie, Tessa, Josh, Joe, Ellie, Sylvia - they are wonderful, beautiful, loving children who are better than I deserve. 
 
For my baby Luke who would be almost 8 if he had lived, his short life changed us all into better people and while I wouldn't wish the experience on anyone I wouldn't trade a moment of his life for anything.
 
For my 4 babies we never met, gifts from God that we will meet one day in heaven.
 
For Sophia my granddaughter who I adore and who teaches me so many lessons in unconditional love. For her mother Ashleigh who is now a part of our lives.
 
For life, for liberty, for the pursuit of happiness.
 
For the men and women in the military that ensure my freedom.
 
For my parents and siblings and inlaws - for all my nieces and nephews.
That I have always been able to stay at home with my children.
 
For food that I love, that is healthy and abundant.
 
For a beautiful home that we all live in, with heat and water and plumbing. 
 
For a mind to learn with, for books to read, for opportunities to share.
 
For my friends in real life and for my bloggie friends who challenge me and support me and love me.


Thank you for stopping here at my little blog
I am thankful for you!
