Happy Thanksgiving! Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day!! Yummy!! What are you thankful for? So many things this year I am thankful for. My family and friends are just a few. I am also thankful that my brother will be home with us this year for Thanksgiving, he has been in the military for the last 6 years and I really cant remember the last time we had Thanksgiving dinner together. This past year my family has been blessed in so many ways. "Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever." It is amazing to see the work that God has done in our family. So this Thanksgiving I am truly thankful. I wish people took Thanksgiving more seriously. I know that the holiday really came about because of some indians and pilgrims and blah blah blah. But I wish people were actually THANKFUL for what they have. It took me a long time to be thankful for what I have, I was always comparing myself to others, and what others had. I am growing out of that, I`m not going to lie I still have times were I covet things (mostly clothes and shoes) that others have, but I am not as bad as I used to be. I am more content. I have a beautiful healthy family, my husband has a great job that pays the bills and then some, my children are happy and I would not trade them for anything in the world, and we are on the way to living in the house of our dreams. Is my life perfect? Umm NO! I have credit cards and loans that need to be paid, my girls fight like cats and dogs, I am not the size 6 I was when I was in college, but I am happy! And Thankful. If God took away everything you didnt thank him for today what would you have left? Be thankful for what you have and every day that God has granted you to live and breath , and be blessed with. Be thankful not only on the days like Thanksgiving but on the crappy days also, the sickness days, the PMS days, be thankful!
Have a happy and blessed Thanksgiving!
