Giving Thanks

I have so, so much to be thankful for!  When I stop and consider the blessings in my life, I am humbled and amazed.  I often pause and wonder, why me?  Why am I so immensely blessed when others are struggling through such hard things in this life?  Praying daily that I will use my blessings to bless others.

Today I am thankful for Jesus Christ (His love and grace), God's amazing creation, my husband Joel, my children, and all the rest of my wonderful family and friends.  I am thankful for freedom, for the opportunity to be a stay home mom, for a home, for our yard and garden, for food to eat, clean water that is safe to drink and easy to access, electricity, books, and so much more!
