I love Thanksgiving. It gives me a chance to look at my life and count my many blessings...which I should certainly do more often than I do!
So, here goes..
I'm most Thanksful for a God who knows me, and knows my heart...and loves me in spite of it. And for His precious son, who paid the ultimate price for my sin. I'm thankful that He gave me a man after his own heart, who could also love me in spite of myself. Who is wonderful father, husband, and provider for us. I thankful for 2 little boys who are beautiful when they sleep, dirty when they play, and happy to keep me on my toes. I thankful for a job that comes with security and provides for our many needs. For a family that is healthy, and mom that loves my boys like only a mother can. I thankful for sisters that hear me when I call and understand. And best friends who love me and love God. I am thankful for doctor's that carefully watch my ever changing health and know just what to do to keep me ready for those boys.
I could go on and on, but I won't. Just know that I am THANKFUL.
What about you?

Tagged! 5 Things I Know for Sure!
OK, so I was tagged by Alison, here. And I am supposed to blog a list about 5 things that I know for sure. I must say this requires alot more thought than it should!! At the end, I will tag 2 more, and you are to copy this and do it yourself! Be creative & I hope that it's easier for you than for me!
1. That Jesus Christ is God's son who died a horrifying death on a cross as punishment for My sin. I know that He then rose again and overcame death and this terrible world. And, because of that I am more than a conquerer, I'm redeemed, I'm free, I'm a child of THE KING, and it is only by His grace that I can do all things! God has His hand on me and on this world. Prayer works...and even when I don't understand, and can't see what He's doing, He's working. And, His plan is perfect. (Is that more than one thing?)
2. I know that diabetes is hard and unforgiving. But, it is liveable, and has taught me so much about myself and what I am capable of.
3. I know that chocolate milk made with whole milk and chocolate mix is ten times better that the kind you buy already chocolate in the jug!
4. When you give, it ALWAYS comes back to you.
5. I know that I don't have all the talent and gifts in the world, but that I am surrounded my amazing friends and family that are always supporting me and praying for me. And, because of that I AM BLESSED.
Now, I tag Christy Bozeman and Karen Moore!
