Thankful

This time last year, I had just gotten home with my new baby boy and was adjusting to being a mother of two. It has been a year full of changes and adjustments, but I have so very much to be thankful for. The Lord has blessed me in so many ways since Thanksgiving last year. Thanksgiving is such a special time of year. I feel like it gets overshadowed by Christmas. Nowadays, everyone puts up their Christmas decorations right after Halloween and Thanksgiving just gets pushed by the wayside. And I truly think that is sad. I think it's so easy to get wrapped up in the day to day grind and focus on the negative things in our lives or the things that aren't the way we want them. Thanksgiving is a time when we can all sit down with family and friends and focus on the wonderful things in life and be thankful for our many blessings. I am thankful for my husband, my children and our family that lives so close. And I am thankful for the wonderful friendships that I have made this year. I am thankful for my husband and the daily sacrifices he makes so that I can be home with our children. I am thankful that I don't have to work and am able to be home with my children and watch them grow. I am thankful to the Lord for our health and happiness.

I hope you all had an amazing Thanksgiving and were able to take some time out from this busy time of year and realize all you have to be thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving!
