Even more recently have I realized how truly bless I am. To think of the war and it's casualties on both sides. The parents, husbands, wives, and children of our military who spend their days awaiting news of loved ones over seas or those who are missing soldiers slain. The Iraqi and Afghan women who worry about bombs being dropped on their babies, worry that their husbands will die and they will have to beg on the streets to survive. These same men worrying what will become of their families if something should happen. Tired from the struggles that these countries have seen for so long.
I am blessed to have a wonderful, helpful husband. He works hard and loves his family. We are coming on 9 years together and I love him more today than any day before. I am blessed for my beautiful healthy children. They are the reason my for existence.
Even if jobs are not what we would like I feel blessed that my husband has a job to go to everyday. Even if we often feel like we don't have enough, the truth is, we live in excess.
I am thankful for all those who helped build this home we live in. It is beautiful, comfortable, and safe. I am thankful for my parents, both which are still alive. I am convinced I have the best pair in the world. I am thankful that they will come to celebrate this day of Thanksgiving with me at my new home where we will be full, warm, and together.
