Ok so I read Keri's blog and of course she has good ideas on her blog so I thought what the heck I would copy her :) (Thanks Keri). I think that we take so much for granted and I am grateful for Thanksgiving week to really help us remember that we have so much. I am so grateful for my family, they are the greatest. My mom is always there for me, always has the right answers for every question and always has everything that you need (this is an amazing trait), also just as Keri said, my mom can tell me to buck up and get over it and not make me feel bad, it just makes me want to do what she says and move on with life. I wish one day I can be as great as she is. My dad is the coolest, he is the most considerate person ever and he loves me unconditionally no matter what. I am thankful for my brother and sister because whenever I need something they are there for me. Its great to have family (even if they live very very far away). Of course now I am so grateful for my very cute baby boy. Even though he keeps me up every night and I only get like 4 hours of sleep, he is the cutest little thing and has already taught me so much. Patience, love, and most of all he makes me so grateful for what my mom and dad did for me growing up.
I am so grateful for my husband and how hard he works for me to help us have the things we have. I am very grateful for him when he wakes up at 5am with Ayden and lets me sleep till 8 (this is the greatest reward ever) :) He is such a good dad and always so patient and understanding of me (especially with my bad horse habits).
I am also grateful for all my friends. I have a great group of friends that are so supportive of me and are such wonderful examples.
The other 'little things' I am grateful for are all my horses, my fuzzy cat Coon, my crazed food driven dog Dehle, my tiny little Gerbil- "Gerbie" he always puts a smile on my face and can devour a toilet paper roll in a minute. I am grateful for the church and what it has taught me, a warm shower, my house, my truck, and my job. I think that there is much more but you probably would not want to read it. Happy Thanksgiving!

Yay, I'm glad you decided to do this to. I just think that we sometimes take all that we have for granted and it's nice to have a time like Thankgiving to remember all the great blessings we have in our life. By the way, you are a great blessing in MY life. You have always been a wonderful friend and I love you and appreciate you!
That was such a great post. It's great to sit back and really think about all the things that we have and start to really appreciate things that we take for granted a lot. I think I might copy this idea too :) I hope that's ok! BTW...I love the picture you put with it!
Yeah awesome post. And you say you aren't a writer! I don't believe that for one second, especially after this post!
