Thankful Tuesday



I see Denise do this every week, and I've decided to participate. Today's theme is to post about whatever you're thankful for....so here's my list:

1. I'm thankful for my beautiful, HEALTHY, intelligent, loving son. He's my heart and I can't picture life without him.

2. I'm thankful for my amazing husband, his support guides me through the darkest days.

3. I'm thankful that I grew up with a great mother, who always put my needs first.

4. I'm thankful that I have a good job, even on the days I don't want to be here.

5. I'm thankful that I can pay my mortgage, in these bad economic times, a lot of people can't do that....I can only imagine how difficult that must be.

6. I'm thankful that I have been given opportunities in life to advance myself...my heart aches for people who have noone standing in their corner.

7. I'm thankful for my health, God willing I'll be around to watch my son grow up.

8. I'm thankful for my puppies! They have given me compassion, that I could not have learned from humans.

9. I'm thankful for my friends, without them, my husband might divorce me due to my constant venting.

10. I'm thankful for extended family, they have taught me the joys that only can be taught by having a large family.

I didn't know they had the same b-day either! Wendy's (pookycat) little boy Gavin was also born on the 23rd (in the same hospital as Eli!). I guess the 23rd was a good day for super cute baby boys :)

I hear ya on #5. I'm so thankful that we were smart and bought a house we could actually afford. We were preapproved for about $40,000 more than what our house cost, but we never would have been able to pay the mortgage on a house that expensive.
