Full of Thankfulness
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!! Tis the season to reflect on what we are thankful for (and eat way too much pie…). I am so full of thankfulness right now that it is difficult for me to put it into words. I am thankful for:
-
- Jesus. His mercies are new every morning!
- my family. I recognize how blessed I am to be married to a wonderful man and have two beautiful daughters. And I couldn’t ask for better parents and in-laws. They are wonderfully encouraging, and pray for us daily.
- employment. My husband’s business has been thriving lately, as well as mine. With uncertain economic times, there is MUCH to be thankful for!
- new friendships. I’ve been involved with a women’s Bible study and playing on a volleyball team with my husband at my church recently which has led to some wonderful new relationships. I am also amazed at how many soapmakers I have met via the internet!
- encouraging customers. You know who you are! Your comments about the products I make are what keep me going. Thank you for your kind words!
- my new nephew! Riley Thomas was born on November 9 – 7 weeks early, after my sister-in-law’s water broke four weeks before that! He is still in NICU, but progressing so well! His older brothers are two-and-a-half, and are completely enamored with him so far. (It will be interesting to see the transition once he comes home from the hospital!)
- paid off vehicles. We just finished paying for my husband’s truck this month – whoopee!
- a sunny Thanksgiving weekend. (I would never survive in Seattle!)
- and so much more…God is so good!
