Give Thanks

Thanksgiving is officially two weeks away from today. Can you believe it? Holy Gobbler!

So, in honor of Thanksgiving and as a reminder from Carrie, I would like to take the next 14 days and remember all that I have to be thankful for.

Will you take the challenge too? Surely you have so many things to be thankful for.

Day 14: Since fourteen has been my lucky number, I will give thanks for all that it represents. My husband. August 14th, 1991 we started dating. October 14th, 1995 we married. October 14th, 1996 we found out we were expecting our first child. March 14th, 1997 we closed on our first home. We have been together for sixteen years, yet married for twelve. Do you find it ironic that the number between them is none other than fourteen?

So, in honor of my husband, I will list 14 things (even though there are so many more) that he has done that I am thankful for.

1. His proposal
2. Jacob
3. Austin
4. Katelyn
5. Emilee
6. Jonathon
7. Our five precious angels we have waiting for us
8. Worked long hours to allow me the opportunity to be a SAHM.
9. His willingness to step up and help with the kids no matter what.
10. His gentle touch
11. His knowledge
12. His patience
13. His support
14. His never ending, unconditional love he shows the children and I each day.

And so, today, I am thankful for my husband, my lover, my very best friend.

What are you thankful for?
