Giving Thanks

Due to the holiday (which is tomorrow) I have been feeling quite thankful lately. I realize that I have so many things to be thankful for, and that I truly am blessed.

As I was sitting at work this morning, once again bragging about my wonderful, thoughtful fiance, the thought crossed my mind that I am so lucky to have him in my life. Brandon puts up with so much. And, let's be quite honest, I'm not always the easiest person to put up with, but still he puts up with me and loves me. I am so grateful to have his love. I truly feel like I don't deserve him. There are so many better girls out there, than myself, and he could have his pick. Any girl would die for him, and somehow, he chose me.

Some other things that I have been thinking about, and things that I am grateful for are my family. My family is amazing. Sure I get frustrated with them sometimes. And, I'll be the first to admit that they're not perfect. But, they're pretty darn close in my book. We're not perfect in the fact that we don't make any mistakes. But, I think that our family dynamic and the way that we love each other unconditionally is pretty perfect. My brother and sister are my best friends, and we are all able to talk to my mom about anything.

I'm grateful to have a job, at this time! Jobs are hard to come by in this day and age, but thankfully I have never had too big of a problem finding a job.

I'm thankful and grateful to have a Heavenly Father who loves me. He loves me so much, He sent his only begotten son to atone for my sins.

Remember, this is the season of being grateful for the things that you have. Tell the people you love, that you love them. Put any old arguments behind you, and forgive anyone who has said anything bad against you. You never know who will be in your life tomorrow, so have them in your life today.
