I do feel comfortable sharing my life and what I am thankful for on my blog. And I have a lot to be thankful for this year. I have been truly blessed!
1) I am thankful for my dear sweet kind husband. He is truly an amazing man. I tell him (in person) everyday how grateful I am for him. The past two years have been an amazing adventure. I look forward to eternity with him.
2) I am thankful for Elijah Reed. That kid has brought this momma more joy than she could ever have imagined. Motherhood is hard......a lot harder than I ever expected but he is worth it. I love him and love being his momma. I'm grateful for all his sweet cuddles and kisses. Everyday I wake up (entirely too early because of him) and wonder how did I get so lucky.
3) I am thankful for parents that raised me in the gospel. They taught me the importance of an eternal family and that is the most important thing. Life wasn't always easy, I didn't always appreciate them, but I do know how amazing they are.
4) I am thankful for in laws that taught my husband the same gospel principles and instilled in him the importance of forever families. They are amazing people who have welcomed me into their family with out too much hesitation. I am a little different than they are but they love me and I love them.
5) I am thankful for my brothers and brothers-in-law. I have two of the most amazing brothers ever. They are excellent examples of the priesthood and of fatherhood. I also have brother in laws that I love as my brothers. My sisters have chosen great spouses for them and I love my brother in law Bryant, he's a pretty funny guy and a great uncle.
6) I am thankful for my sisters and my sisters-in-law. I have been blessed with women who I consider my best friends that I get to be sealed to for eternity. I don't see it as me only having 3 sisters, I see it as me having 7 sisters. They are all amazing and so talented. This is one of the things I'm most thankful for.
7) I am thankful that I have had a healthy pregnancy so far. I hate being pregnant and still feel sick but I am grateful I can have children. I'm in no rush for Madelynn to get here but I do look forward to meeting her. I know she will be the perfect addition to my family.
8) I am thankful for modern technology. I have a love hate relationship with most of it. I think the internet is amazing. I love the fact that we can live across the country from our family and still talk to them and see them every week.
9) I am thankful that I get to teach online classes. We don't make a lot doing it but it's just enough to help us out. And the work isn't too hard. I hope to continue to do this for as long as I can. If only I can figure out a way to let Elijah know that I don't need his help while grading papers.
10) I am thankful that Brent is in his last year of school. I am so excited for him to be done and get a paycheck. I know that our living won't change a ton but at least we'll have an income. And hopefully we'll be able to buy a house. I am so looking forward to having our own place!
I have lots to be grateful for. Family obviously being the most important thing to me.
