I am thankful for...day 19

I am thankful for a boss who is understanding and who bent over backwards to re-arrange the Thanksgiving week schedule so that I could head to NJ to with my mom-in-law this week! I have to work a 10 hour day on Sunday and a half a day on Monday, but it is a small sacrifice to pay!

I am so thankful that my mom got the job she was interviewing for at Nationwide Children's hospital! Not only is she moving out here this month but she has already found a job! Praise the Lord!

I am thankful for my small group at our church. We are a group of 5 couples that get together once a week to discuss a topic and pray for each other. What a huge blessing this group has been to me this past year! I am so grateful for them!

I am thankful for..day 16

I know I skipped a few days, but our family is going through a difficult situation at this time and my mind has been elsewhere that past week, so please forgive me. Today I am thankful for spontaneous trips to NJ for the holidays! We will be spending both Christmas and Thanksgiving with Pat's family this year and I am really excited. We always have a good time and it will be great to spend a few more precious moments with this side of the family. I am so thankful for family!

I am thankful for...day 9

I am thankful for the freedom to choose how we want to raise our family. There has been much controversy over the Duggar family announcing they are expecting their 20th child! Granted 20 children is probably not God's plan for my life but I am so grateful that by living in America I have that right to choose how many children I would like to have and how I want to raise them!

I am thankful for...day 8

I am thankful for my cozy bed, which makes it so hard to get up in the morning! I could spend a whole day (ok well maybe half a day) in bed. I love sleep and flannel sheets

I am thankful for...day 7

I am SO thankful that my mom sold her house today! After MONTHS of issues and dilemmas she finally closed on her house in NJ. Thank you to all of you who have been praying! Now just pray her job interview goes well and her move to Ohio goes smoothly! I am a little biased because this means free babysitting :)
