Things I am thankful for:
1) my parents. Amazing people who do things, little things, that they don't realize how much they are appreciated for it. Perhaps i should say thank you more often. they are always there for me and i pretty much couldn't live without them.
2) my friends, thank GOD there are TOO many to list, but i'll just tell you a few of them that i am thankful for: Jess. She makes me laugh and she shares her most wonderful side of herself with me-- even if her most wonderful side wipes my kisses off his 3yo face!! I love that parker, i may never know why! -- Vanessa. Oh Vdub! My bestfriend who has stood by my side for so long. she listens when i need to vent, she lets me cry and she makes me laugh. we share the most memories together because she has been my bff for so long! more than TEN YEARS!! -- Joey! my bins! we share the most things in common and we totally get each other! that is what makes life so easy, knowing there is someone out there who totally gets you!! =)
3) All the things i thought were the worst moments in my life that turned out to be for the best! Leaving St Louis broke my heart, leaving all my friends behind, moving "home" to a place I'd never lived before, with no friends... i met Melissa. my ONE friend, and because of that i was blessed by another true friendship that i will cherish forever. Losing jobs and being burned out by "childcare" was depressing and emotionally-exhausting, but because of those jobs and the search for a new job I was blessed by another job opportunity that brought me to Ryan. I am blessed with his friendship, because he is an amazing person and is good to me. He makes me laugh and he even appreciates my spoiled-rotten, totally whiney side! =)
4) My Gram. i know she had no idea how much i loved her, how much i looked up to her, how much i aspire to be her. but she was the exact person God needed her to be while she was here on Earth, and I know this because her love has made me feel so blessed everyday of my life. I miss her daily!
..... i am blessed so much in my life, so much to be thankful for, and for that I thank God!
