I am thankful for.....

I haven't kept up this blog with any regularity since the fall, but I feel especially inspired to record what I am thankful for. The list is long, so I'll list the highlights.

I am thankful for family. My husband, who loves me like no other man could, and whom I love more and more as the years pass. My children, who amaze me daily. Our parents, all of them, bless us so much, with unconditional love and support. Our siblings and nephews, who are a part of our day to day lives, we live life together, I couldn't imagine better friends. Our extended families, who we don't see often, but we know love and support us, as we do them.

I am thankful for our home, our jobs, creative opportunities, abundance, HEALTH, good teachers for our sons, good coaches who care about our sons well being and character. Pastors, church leaders and friends in our church community, who love us, season after season, year after year. Our church family has seen us through some of the most joyous, and the most difficult seasons of our lives.

I am grateful for friends near and far. I am so thankful that these relationships do not require lots of maintenance, they get richer with each passing year.

I know I could keep writing, but this is enough for now. Suffice it to say, I am sooooo very thankful this Thanksgiving season. I am thankful for all that is good, and for all that has been hard. I am thankful for growth, I am thankful that I am a daughter of the King.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Everyone!

Networking can be expensive!

I went to a cool women's networking meeting the other night. It was with an organization called Heartlink . It was at some one's house. An awesome dinner was served. Tables set, lovely hospitality, and about 20 very interesting women were there. We each got 3 minutes to introduce ourselves and tell a bit about our business's. Most of the women knew each other already. Many of the women present had business's that sell through direct marketing. Most of the big ones were represented, and a few new ones I had never heard of but found interesting. There were also women with other business's like insurance, legal services, printing, etc... It is great to meet like minded people, and I can definitely see the benefits of attending regularly. The bad part however, is it leaves you wanting to go shopping! All of a sudden, I MUST have the new mango cutter from Pampered Chef, and I am yearning to freshen up my candles, and I NEED a hole new wardrobe from CABi . ...

The Sky is Blue

I want to thank all of you who lift my family up in prayer.  I thank all of you who give us encouragement.  I try really hard to see the cup 1/2 full, and most days I do.  I was feeling a little down last night, but today is a new day.  Blue skies remind me of how much I am loved.  Have an awesome day friends. And.....on a side note.... Go Viewpoint Patriots!!! We are in the playoffs! Wooo Hoooooo!

I believe

I believe....... That marriage is a lifetime gig That it is up to us to take care of those in need, through families, churches, relationships, etc... That family is serious business, parenthood is a gift, a treasure, something to take dead dog serious. That I have a right, and a responsibility to protect my family and those who can't protect themselves, from would be criminals, and anyone else who is attempting to infringe on our rights as stated in our constitution. I believe that without faith in God, and a conscious decision to submit to him, people are lost in a pool of ever changing self centered nonsense, and are subject to what ever the politically correct, hip, educated mantra of the year is. Stuff is awesome, shiny cars, flashy jewels, exotic vacations, are all delightful--- for a little while--then when the shiny wears off, and the financial impact starts hurting--- the result is damage to the most important thing--- family, and submission to God.
