Thankful Thursdays

A lot of my Facebook and Blogger friends are posting every day what they are thankful for. But let's be honest folks, I can not commit to logging on here every day. That would not happen.

So instead, I am going to be dedicated to Thursdays until the end of the year, and perhaps into 2012.

There is so much to be thankful for and I want to note it so I can look back years from now, perhaps when times are tough, and be uplifted.

Thirteen Thanks:

1) Husband: John and I started dating back in high school almost 11 years ago. No, we haven't been together since then (taking a little break somewhere years ago), but hey- 11 years! Crazy! He is my best friend and an amazing husband. More than that, he is a FAN. TAS. TIC dad. Watching him with our girls brings an instant smile to my face.

2) My daughters: they are my world. I lose sleep for them. I cry for them. I strive to be the best person I can be for them.

3) Our families: we most definitely would not be here today if it weren't for our families. We have an amazing support system around us.

4) My Mom: I could write an entire post about my mom. She is my strength and my support. I love her- enough said.

5) Coffee! No explanation.

6) Prayer. It is amazing how great you feel after a good prayer.

7) Pictures

8) Sleep. Even though it is minimal at times.

9) Working out and the ability to do so.

10) Good friends. I used to think quantity was the answer. Nope- it is quality. And I have some AMAZING friends.

11) Trash TV.

12) The ability to take this extra time to stay home. I went back to work after having Jordyn after six short weeks and I am definitely enjoying my time with my family.

13) A baby's smile.
