Another year has passed, and the holidays are upon us once again. The crazy last minute shopping, checking our bank accounts to make sure we have enough money, baking cookies, trying to get out Christmas cards in time, and trying to untangle those Christmas lights. With all of this going on, it is very easy to forget to take time out and be thankful for everything you have. I have decided to make a list of the things I am most thankful for this year :
- My marriage - I am married to the most wonderful man. He is my best friend and I love him more than he knows (Well maybe not, since I tell him constantly)
- My friends - This deployment has been hard, but when I get phone calls, and cards in the mail I realize just how lucky I am. Thank you guys!
- My family - They have been a wonderful support throughout my life and I love them very much.
- Our house - We can afford the mortgage and it is perfect for us.
- My job - With today's economy, I am very lucky to be one of the ones who has a job. Last year, due to budget cuts, I almost lost it, and although the kids sometimes drive me crazy, I love my job!
- Finishing my Master's! Only 2 weeks to go....
I am sure there is more, and I may have to come back and add, but these are the ones that stuck out. Michael and I hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving holiday!
