Sincere Gratitude

http://gritsngrace.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/thankful.jpg

Tonight we had a Relief Society meeting at church. As this month is the month of giving thanks, we talked about sincere gratitude. What it is to be grateful, and how to show love to one another. It was so nice and I needed it in my life right now.
I am so grateful for this time of the year, when people start to think differently. When we look at each other as brothers and sisters and not strangers. When we reach out to people in need and show love that we should have been showing all year.
I can't began to list all the things that I am grateful for. I have the best husband in the whole world. I am thankful everyday to have him in my life. He is my rock in so many ways. I love my family. Each one of them has had a hand in molding me into the person I am today and will continue to teach me. Thank you Mom and Dad for raising me and I hope you are proud of the person I have become, because I am proud to have been raised by you! I am grateful for my sisters. We have so much fun together, and I know that no matter how old we become, we always will. I love the one brother that the Lord blessed our family with growing up. Not only does he blow me away with his talent, but he has shown me how to care for people and love. My brother is the most caring person in my life. Never have I heard him say one mean thing to me growing up and even now that we are adults. He has never put me down or made fun of me. A lesson that I need to learn from my younger brother.
I love the family that I married into as well. They are the most excepting group of people. Take you just the way you are and then love you for it. They thank me all the time for finding Cory and becoming a part of their family. I am so grateful for the best mother-in-law I could have ever asked for. Thank you Mom for loving me and making me smile and laugh every time I need it.
I am thankful for my church, the gospel, and the peace that it brings into my life. I can't put into words how thankful I am for my savior. I love him so much. I am grateful that my savior, Jesus Christ would die for me. For me. No matter how much I serve him I will never be able to pay him back for that.
I am thankful for life. This life, right now, with all its problems and hardships. It is mine and I am thankful to have it.
Thank you . . . . . to everyone, Thank you.

I am Sick!


I am so sick!

I have this nasty cold that wont go away. I have eaten nothing but soup and fruit for the last four days and drank nothing but Orange Juice and herbal tea (blah :(). Last night my wonderful "Honey" went to the store and got me a vaporizer so last night I finally did get some sleep. Anyone Got any ideas? Worst part is I can't afford to take any more time off work, so somehow I have to brave the idea of making myself pretty and driving off to work this afternoon. On the up side I started watching the "Lost" DVD's. It's a good show.
