Things I'm grateful for

This is a great thanksgiving for me- so much to be grateful for!
  • I'm grateful for my sweet husband. He takes such good care of me and always makes me feel special and loved. He's a hard worker and we always have fun together.
  • I'm grateful for my puppy. Lucy has grown up to be a great dog- literally, nearly no complaints from me. The energy level has calmed down a bit, she doesn't whine anymore, and she obeys all directions really well. And she's adorable! Lately she likes to carry her towel/doggy blanket around with her in her mouth- just like a baby blanket, always dragging around. It's so cute.
  • I am so grateful for my job. I am so lucky to have found it, and that they are going to let me work remotely when we move. I never thought with my linguistics major I would find a job like this.
  • I am grateful for our home! The loan stuff came through this week and we got a really good deal and I'm just feeling so blessed.
  • I'm grateful for my baby. It's amazing how emotionally attached I've gotten to this little alien parasite growing in my tummy. We're so excited to have her (or him) join us.
  • I am grateful for our health. Especially with the kind of care I take of myself, I know I have an amazing guardian angel.
  • I'm grateful for my family. I love that we have all stayed close into adulthood. I love that I still consider my parents some of my best friends. I've been so lucky to have Lori nearby, and to have Becky a short IM/phone call away, and we are so excited to be moving closer to Kevin and his sweet wife Candace. And Chris- well, someday we'll see Chris again:).
  • And last but not least, I am so grateful for my church and my testimony. I can't imagine living without the direction, love and guidance that Christ and his gospel give me.
I hope everyone has a wonderful thanksgiving!

Read you were sick on Becky's blog. So sorry. That was always the worst for me cause there's not a lot you can take when you are pregnant to feel better.
