Thankful

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. I am so looking forward to time spent with family! We have so much to be thankful for this year. Here are my top 10:

1. My Lord Jesus. I have learned so much these past few months and feel like my relationship with my Savior is stronger than ever. So, so grateful for my salvation and the freedom I have in Him.

2. My sweet husband. He works so hard for our family, plays his heart out with the kids when he gets home, and is willing to satisfy my crazy pregnancy cravings by running out to the store at 9:00 at night. True love!

3. My tender hearted Luke. He really is such a blessing to us. He has grown so much this year. He is more confident, he is thoughtful and smart, and he is growing more tolerant and appreciative of his little sister. Yay!

4. My spirited and spunky Ella. She daily makes us laugh, smile, and keeps us on our toes. She is very caring, loves her big brother, and takes such good care of her baby dolls. She's going to make one good mama assistant when the new baby comes!

5. This sweet little no name in my belly. I love her so much already! Feeling her little kicks (and sometimes big kicks!) is indescribable. I am really trying to cherish each moment of this pregnancy, knowing it will be my last. I can't wait to see her sweet face in person and start a brand new adventure!

6. Our parents. Without their support, I'm not sure where we'd be. We are so grateful for all of their help and love!

7. Our little house. We are so thankful to be renting this great little house. It's not big, but it's full of love! And we wouldn't trade the proximity to the park and pool for anything! Such a blessing.

8. The new friends I've made this year. I love the ladies of ACC and cherish the connections I've made.

9. Staying in touch with old friends, even though we don't get to see each other all that much anymore. I am blessed with amazing women to go through the journeys of life with!

10. The miracles I've witnessed, big and small! From little lives that have survived surgeries and hardships, to the baby growing in my belly, to God's financial provision for us these past years...there is no denying we have a God who loves us very much!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our loved ones! We cherish you!
