LAUGHTER - A big 'thank you' to Cole who NEVER fails to make us laugh til we pee a little. This Thanksgiving his antics came in the form of my son's baby-butt imprinted on a homemade ornament.
HEALTH - Doctors, nurses, and all the other people who have helped our family get and stay healthy over the last year.
FAMILY - So thankful that we have technology that allows us to share conversations, pictures and videos with our family near and far.
REST - A much needed break from work to spend with friends and family without feeling like its a race to get everything done.
FRIENDSHIP - Getting to see our wonderful friends who live too far away, but always make the effort to see us when they are home.
PURPOSE - Having jobs that provide for our family and give us a sense of purpose in our lives.
HOME - Having a home that is warm, cozy and safe and filled with all of the sights, sounds and smells that make it feel like the holidays.
LOVE - Parents who love us and love each other enough to spend holidays with the in-laws so Ryan and I don't have to 'split time.'
EVERYTHING - A baby boy who brings us so much joy and love we can hardly contain it.
This year we have experienced the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. There is not a doubt in my mind that I witnessed two of God's greatest miracles within 2 months of each other right in front of my eyes. I am so thankful for everything he has blessed me with. Because of this, these words continue to echo in my head - "To whom much has been given, much will be required." Our prayer is that we will be able to comprehend the vastness of God's grace in our lives and use it to be a blessing to those around us.
'Thank You' to all of our friends and families who make our lives complete. We love you all!
