Much Ado about Monday!! Thankful!!

I am so thankful for so many different things!
I am thankful for my awesome life-mate and am thankful to God for binding us together.
I am thankful for the roof over our heads, and the food in our pantry! I am thankful for the military and thankful that my hubby will be home this year for Thanksgiving, and Christmas. I am thankful for my two little boys that give me so much joy and fill my days with laughter!
I am thankful to be hosting Thanksgiving this year! I am thankful that my mother in law, father in law, step-mother in law, and brother in law will be coming here to my humble abode to share Thanksgiving with us!
I am thankful that we have enough in the bank to purchase all of our Thanksgiving fixins! I am so thankful that my mom is flying in tonight from Oregon to spend a week with our family! It has been 10 long months since I have seen her!
As I type this, I am overwhelmed, and humbled. I do not deserve any of what I have! If you think about it, what we have does not really even belong to us. Our lives here on earth are but a moment in time, compared to the eternity that awaits us!
Thanksgiving is a time to be thankful, and give thanks! Please won't you take a moment to count your blessings and give thanks to God for the gifts He has given you!

  3. Hey there! I found you through the military blog hop. I wanted to stop by and say hello. Follow me back? http://lifewithalittleguy.blogspot.com/

    I'm so glad you're able to spend the holidays with not only your hubby but other family as well. I think as military wives we really just need to be thankful to have our husbands home for the holidays because you never know what the next holidays will have in store for us!
