Thankful for:

In honor of Thanksgiving I thought I might list some of the things I'm truely greatful for.

-That I have parents, who I know truely love myself, my sisters, and our children.
-The fact that the guy I really liked in highschool never took notice of me, because I might have missed out on the truely amazing marriage to a really wonderful man.
-That my In-Laws not only love my husband and children...they seam to really count me as one of their own as well.
-That my children can yell and scream and even fight with one another, because they are healthy and have the ability to do so.
-That I have a home that is in a safe neighborhood, that I don't worry about taking walks in.
-That I have neighbors that I can call if I need anything, be it a babysitter or 1/4 cup of sugar.
-That I have a car that is reliable and can fit my whole family... even if it is getting tight :)
-That the few close friends I have are down to earth and worry about me when they can't get a hold of me after a few days.
-That I wouldn't feel weird calling my friends and neighbors for no reason at all, just because I needed an adult to talk to.
-That my children have friends.
-That G and Missy My are such good friends and really adore their little brother.
-That my marriage is stable and loving and that I have never had reason to regret marrying the man I did.
-That my life is not a soap opera like so many people I see around me.
-That I have the opportunity to stay at home with my children, raising them how Jer and I see fit.
-That I can still kiss a ouchie better sometimes
-That I have a backyard, for those times when my nerves are shot.
-That sometimes money is tight, so I can recongnize how blessed I am in the comforts of this world.
-That there is always someone better than I am, so I have something to aspire to.
-That there is always someone worse than I am, so I don't beat up on myself to much.
-That somehow things always work out for the best even when I don't see how they can when I'm in the middle of them.
And so much more...
