I am thankful....

I decided since we are in the season for thanksgiving and loving others I would share what I am thankful for:

 

  1. For my wonderful kids and James.  I love them so much.
  2. For knowing of our Heavenly Fathers plan.
  3. For the Gospel.
  4. That I was able to witness many miracles in my home through our son AJ and EJ.   I am grateful they still are with us.
  5. For our large extended family that we love so much.
  6. For my wonderful friends... and yes we need to take another cruise like we all did earlier this year.  :)  And to those fabulous friends that stuck by us through thick and thin. Love you all!!
  7. For old friends from my childhood.  Love you guys!!!
  8. For my wonderful house (ok it needs some work but it's loved none the less) and no neighbors.  :)  And to know that a person is trespassing if they even can see the house.  HEHE  Yes we own the road coming up to our house. 
  9. For 10 acres of forest to go 4 wheeling on.
  10. For my chickens... because they give me eggs and I don't have to buy them anymore.  :) 
  11. My school work and yes I have a 98% in my Psychology class right now.  Only 5 days left.  :)  I am glad I have a 4.0 GPA. I have worked so hard since I started school in January.  :)  Chemistry is by far my favorite subject.  WOW that is a nerdy thing to say. HEHE.  It is all going to pay off when I start my nursing program in March.  :)
  12. For my job.  Yes I hate being away from my family but I do love being a nurse.  :) 
  13. We are getting RID of that house in Covington.  I hated having renters in there to be honest especially when they don't pay like I expect them too. 
  14. For a big feast we had a few days ago
  15. For the Christmas season I love so much
  16. For the song O Holy Night which is my favorite Christmas song.  I love the words.
  17. For having peace in my life, yes it might be chaotic with 5 kids but there is a sense of peace. :)
  18. For my new friends I have gained since moving here to the "claw".
  19. For a better school district.  Kent just sucked rocks!!! This school district has so much more to offer then Kent (sorry all you Kent schools friends, I am just telling the truth  HEHE).  Ski club, drama club, free swimming for the 2nd and 3rd graders in all the district.
  20. For quietness- being able to go outside and look up at the stars and see the moonlight.
  21. To be able to run around in the buff outside if I want to HEHE.  Uhmmm ya.  HEHE  That is important you know HAHA
  22. To mow our lawn in peace and not see 100 neighbors. :)
  23. That when EJ goes to seminary (like bible study for Mormons) he will not have to go to early morning.  They have seminary release from school during the day as a class period.  (There are 80 Mormon kids in the high school).
  24. That James got called as a Gospel Doctrine teacher (Sunday school for adults) at church.  He is an amazing teacher and makes everyone cry because of the spirit he brings to the class.  :)   Including myself.
  25. That I know what I want and where I stand in this world.
  26. That I have a cushy life and I can give my kids everything they need.
  27. That I know my Heavenly father loves me and wants me to be successful
  28. For the power of Prayer.  It has been my lifeline to figuring out things I need to figure out and allows me to have peace.
  29. For life in general and the power to forgive others including those that would consider me an enemy.  :) 
  30. For having 30 things to be thankful for.  :)

Well that is enough although I have tons to be thankful for.
