I think often about my dad and wonder why heavenly father called him home so soon! I have consumed my self with the bad things that have happened since he has been gone. I have decided it is time to change that!
Today I spent the afternoon with my mom and helped her spruce up her resume. She hasn't worked in many years and is ready to try and find a part time job to get her out a bit. In reminiscing about past jobs and the paths our lives have taken us a light has come on for me. I have learned so many things about my mom I would have never known had she not moved home with us.
While not having my dad here has also brought its own challenges in our family. Many that I never thought I would have to face with my family. There have been many good things that have came out of it...
Many things that I can be thankful for! Just to name a few:
My new found love in my life....the church....
My hubby and how strong he is and how much his vows of through better or worst have been tested this past year...( and he stuck with me...lol)
My beautiful children and to see the growth our family has gone through and how strong we are TOGETHER....
My mom and the new relationship that we are building....
My MANY amazing friends, some are old and some are new....
My job and the wonderful, thoughtful, caring people that I call my co-workers and friends!
My Family...wow is all I can say! They are all the BEST ever!
When you look at all the things your are thankful for it makes everything else bearable!
