Being Thankful

Today I am thankful for my loving husband. He has put up with a lot from me, and yet, he is still here. Love you!

Today I am thankful for my little boy. I never thought he would grow into such a silly, awkward little man, but I love every bit of it....especially the excitement he has when he accomplishes a task.

Today I am thankful for my mom. She is an awesome listener, and even though I don't like hearing it, she always tells me how she feels about something. I am a stronger person because of her.

Today I am thankful for my sister. Although we battled it out in our younger years, she has become my best friend. I love our conversations and enjoy just hanging out with her.

Today I am thankful for having a roof over my head. Now that we are in a house instead of an apartment, I am greatful for not having noisy neighbors above me anymore.

Today I am thankful for having a job that I love. Its a tough economy and I am glad to be in a profession that always needs me. I love being a nurse, and I am so glad I made that decision. Although it is hard getting up early, I rarely have a day that I don't want to go to work (unlike my previous job where I hated to go every day).

Today I am thankful my husband also has a job. It is a true blessing to have two incomes in our family home.

Today I am thankful for all the material things that we own, such as good, reliable cars, furniture, and appliances.

Today I am thankful for all of my family. I love them for everything that they are!

Today I am thankful for old and new friends. Although I have lost touch with many old ones, I kept the most important ones close by. And I am greatful for all the new friends I have made over the past couple years as well.

I'm sure I am missing something, but I have got to get ready for my holiday family gathering today! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
