What I am Thankful For

Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving, I thought it would be a good time to say what I am grateful for in my life:

1. FAMILY-I love my babies, soooo much. I have known so many people in my life, who were not able to have children or they have struggled with fertility for a long time. That is why I am so grateful for being able to have children so easily. I love being able to feel them kick inside of me, and seeing their faces the moment they are born. They have given me so much joy and happiness in my life, and I love them with a kind of love I never knew I could posess. I would do anything for them. I love each of their distinct and wonderful personalities. I love that they all look like their daddy and act like their daddy!

2. MAKAYLA- I don't even know how to tell you about how much Makayla means to me. She was my stumbling block and one of my greatest blessings of all time. She is definetly special,and everyone who has ever even met her knows that she is special. She is a special spirit that I am grateful the Lord saw fit for me to take care of here on earth. She brightens our lives and has brought our family to a level of closeness that could not have been obtained without her.

3. JAMES MICHEAL-What can I say, he is such a great kid. He is a wonderful big brother. I can tell the Lord sent him first to be the protector of his brother and sister. He is wild and crazy, already the class clown in primary, and cuddly. He loves to give hugs, and boy is he smart. I don't worry about him, because I know he is just like his father, and will turn out great.

4. EVAN- Wow! I can't believe it has almost been a year since we had him. All I can say is that he is the light of my life! He is always happy, such a cuddler,and boy does he love me. He is my little mamma's boy, and I LOVE IT. He is a bit stubborn, well, very stubborn, but I love him for it. He gave me lots of hope in my life and I will forever be grateful to him for that.

5. MY HUSBAND-James is a great guy. Always there when I need him, never selfish, and always hard working. He is a wonderful father, and our kids just love him so much. He makes up for all my short comings, which are many, and is pretty funny(probably only to me though).That he is always the first to tell me everything will be alright. I am grateful he lives the gospel and loves the gospel. That he married me, and that we are growing and learning together. I love ya babe!

6.MOM- I love ya mom, you get me, and I love that you get me!

7. MY IN-LAWS- What can I say, they are pretty awesome and supportive. Not everyone can say that about their in-laws!

8.THE GOSPEL-Last but not least, the church. I know that I have been so blessed to have the gospel in my life. I love that my family can be together forever. Enough said! Happy THANKGSGIVIG!

Wait, what about us??? And puppies??? We think James is funny too. Especially when does his alien chatting on IM and when he pouts and kicks off his boots.
