A time to give thanks...

The holiday season is upon us!  Thanksgiving will be here in less than a week, Christmas will be here in about a month - and i'm sitting here wondering where the time has gone, and how the year has flown by. This has been a crazy year with lots of adventures, craziness, love, and laughter - and, honestly... I wouldn't change a thing! There are so many things and people in my life that I am thankful for.  So... here are just a  few:
  • I am thankful for a BIG God who is always there and whose love is unfailing.  
  • I am thankful for my three amazing kids, who I cannot imagine doing life without.  
  • I am thankful for my parents, and being raised in a loving Christian home.
  • I am thankful for my crazy nieces and nephews  who I love like they are my own. 
  • I am thankful for my brother and sister (and their spouses), and their unconditional love (even when they don't agree). 
  • I am thankful that I have amazing friends, who make my life full of laughter (even more thankful that they are low maintenance). 
  • I am thankful that I have a job that I love, and am able to take pride in the organization I work for.
I know that I am truly blessed!  We really should tell our loved ones each day that we appreciate and are thankful for them, but somehow - life gets in the way, and we get busy. So.. this holiday season, be sure to share your blessings, give an unsuspecting soul a big 'ole hug, show random acts of kindness - you never know when you are making a huge difference in someone's life!
