Things I am thankful for.....

Hello all~
I hope everyone is doing well. I have a few minutes before my little pumpkin wakes up and before Private Practice comes on so I thought I would take a moment to blog about some of the things I am thankful for. First and foremost I am thankful for God, and for what he has provided for me in my life, the simple fact that He died for me and my sins is more than I could ever give back, so I am thankful for Him. I am thankful that he has provided a roof over my head, food in my pantry and stomach, clothes on my back, heat and air in my house, and my health. I am thankful for my family, not just my wonderful husband, or my new love of my life: my son, but my sisters and their families, my in-laws, my extended family in Sacramento, my friends who are close enough to be called family (those in Fillmore, Vegas, Seattle...you know who you are!), and my friends: spread out as they may be from California to Texas to Oregon. I am thankful for the quiet moments that I have in which I can sit and stare at Dominic and be truly blessed and amazed by God's grace. Today I am even thankful for the rain, because we need it! I am thankful for my muddy puppies, because they don't have a clue that tracking mud into the house a thousand times a day is a naughty thing, and they love to play in it! I am thankful for any sleep I get, and for my husband who takes Dominic when I am so passed out tired I can't get out of bed! I am thankful for my education, because at one point in time women couldn't get a higher education, and that I have a job that I love, with a boss that I love, and co-workers that I love! I could go on and on about the things I am thankful for, but I won't. Just know that I am truly thankful for so many things, and if I don't say it enough....THANK YOU!

Enjoy Thanksgiving tomorrow, it is Brandon's and mine favorite holiday because it isn't about anything but family, friends, and good food. I am not cooking this year (obviously), but we will still celebrate 2 Thanksgivings as always...one with my family and one with his. I might even be able to sneak out for a movie, Twilight is out, or so I hear (heheheheh). Penny and I made plans to see this movie back in August, and I am so excited, but it will be the first time I am away from Dominic for any length of time, so wish me luck! I wish everyone has the best Thanksgiving and if I don't get a chance to talk to you.....Happy Thanksgiving and love to you all!
