This year has been an absolutely crazy one for me and it has made me very thankful.
I am thankful for my amazing family , although we drive eachother nuts most of the time, they have supported me through so much.
I am Thankful for friends, true friends, not the ones who call once a year on your birthday and pretend that they give a hoot, but my real honest to goodness friends who can tell im down or upset by the way i word a text message and instantly call me to see whats going on and do anything to cheer me up, the friends that would rather hang out with me and Emery then complain about how i "can't ever go out and do stuff" The friends who opened there house, fridge and wallet for me and Emery when we we needed it the most.
I am thankful for God, although my faith has waiverd a bit the past year, He has always been there for me picking me up when i need it and helping to remind me that things could be much worse.
I am thankful for Emery without her i would be a mess, I am thankful for her health and happiness and the fact that she can put a smile on my face no matter what.
I am thankful for Love, a love that always finds away and never falters , a love that is hard but worth it every single day.
I am thankful for my parents (i know i said family but they deserve there own shout out) My parents have done soooo much for me i can't even express it..They put a roof over me and emmie, there love and support has never waivered even when they don't quite agree with my choices. I can't imagine how it was to going from having an empty nest and 2 mouths to feed to having their adult child and toddler back with them and now 4 mouths to feed and having to give up their vehicles when i need it. I am so very lucky.
now a different list
I am thankful for my cellphone , for keeping me close to the ones i love that don't live near me and for late night calls and texts that keep me smiling for days.
I am thankful for books for keeping me occupied for hours when i don't want to think to hard about anything.
I am thankful for caffeine because most mornings i wouldn't be able to move if it wasn't for a redbull.
I am thankful to live in America I am thankful for those who serve and have served to allow me to keep my freedoms even if it means they lose most of theirs.
I try to remember all the things i am thankful for on more then just Thanksgiving, but sometimes we lose sight of what is truly important and get so caught up in our own lives that we don't see just how great we really do have it.
So to everyone. Happy Thanksgiving.. Now let the fighting over the wishbone commence!
