My awesome Cousin Audrey Fuller has a rockin blog which I LOVE reading. CHECK IT OUT!!! kevinandaudrey.blogspot.com Anyway she does a Thankful Thursday post on Thursdays (obviously) in November and I figured I should catch on and do the same...It'd be good for me and it gives me something to post about. So here's my first post. Today is the 11th so technically I need 11 Thankful For's....I should have PLENTY!
1. First and foremost I am grateful to a loving Heavenly Father who I know is there watching over myself and my family who answers prayers and knows our struggles. I know he LOVES me.
2. I am grateful for a loving best friend who has been for the last 4 years who I like to think has always been my best friend even before this life. I am grateful to him for taking me to the temple
3 years ago to be sealed for time and all eternity and take part in the Covenants we made there. i i LOVE him.
4. I am grateful to 2 LOVING families the Packard Family and the Reece/Daly family! They are extremely supportive and helpful in all that we have experienced since we became our own family. What would we do without family? Seriously!?
5. I am grateful for the knowledge of the Gospel. To be a part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints...to understand the blessings of making and keeping covenants.
6. I am grateful for the Atonement. For my Savior and Older Brother Jesus Christ who sacrificed his life that we can live with our Heavenly Father again. That I can not only use the atonement when I have wronged but when I am down and need help getting back up.
7. I am truly grateful to be a Mother. What wonderful blessings come from bringing a child into this world and teaching them. It's definitely not easy but his laughter and happiness makes it worth it. (even when he sleeps crappy at night)
8. I am grateful for my sweetheart again for being a hardworker and for WANTING to support our family someday. He studies all day and all night and goes to school and takes care of me and plays with Grayson. It takes a toll on him but he still does it because he WANTs to be better for us.
9. I am Thankful for friends. ALL friends. BUT today friends I have made here in Wymount. What great examples they are to me as a girl/woman (I don't feel old enough to be a woman) in raising and caring for their children. They are a great support group.
10. I am grateful for The Lord's University. BYU!!! That Chris can attend school and receive a great education for CHEAP! Life SAVER~
11. Last but not least because today is Veteran's Day. I am thankful for all our service men and women who fight everyday to protect and serve our country. We have multiple members in our family and extended family married in or blood related who have risked their lives for our country and I am truly and forever grateful. I am glad to be an American.
Next Thursday I will only have one...
I just realized most of these are Grateful fors...oops.
