Thankful...

As I sit here in tears I am thankful for the life God has given me.

I just finished watching a video of a friend who's baby passed away. The video was stunningly beautiful and was a wonderful way for her family and friends to get to know her daughter. Her sweet daughter passed at just 29 weeks gestation. It is a reminder to me that life is simply to delicate to take advantage of.

I'm not sure how she does it but she has handled everything so graciously. The video alone shows how she was able to embrace God and take comfort in knowing that her baby girl is in a better place. I am certain that I would be unable to compose myself the way that she has and look at the positive side of things... remembering the few short moments that they had together.

Please remember to be grateful for what you have and remember to thank God for the gifts that he has given you.

Here are the things that I am thankful for:

*My loving family
*My incredible husband
*My sweet baby girl
*My amazing friends
*My energetic puppy dog
*My career
*And most importantly God and the life that he has given me

What are you thankful for?




If you begin looking at each breath as a blessing, then suddenly everything in an ordinary life becomes a miracle.
