I admit that I have had a hard time getting into the holiday spirit this year. The last 6 months have been incredibly difficult. Between my baby sisters cancer (and continuing major health issues), my older sisters heart issues (complete with surgery), and my families involvement with unfortunate circumstances, I was having a hard time finding that joy. Then I sat here and looked around. I have three of the most beautiful, smart, loving, and funniest children. They are all physically healthy and with the grace of God, will all be mentally/emotionally healthy. Stronger than ever before. I have a husband that works so hard to provide for our family and loves our children with everything he is. My family. I have two sisters that are my rock. That allow me to cry, scream, laugh, and whatever else may come out, throughout every aspect of my life. My Mom who listens to me any time I call. Sometimes there are things that only a Mom can relate to. I have a job with coworkers who have been so supportive, and have welcomed me (and my baby) with open hearts and arms. I have friends that are there for me at any time, even when I dont realize that I needed them at that moment. I have learned that people are still good. When my faith in humans was shaken to core, people are constantly reminding me that there is still good out there. So today I am giving thanks for my kids, my husband, my family (especially my sisters), my friends, my coworkers, and for life. I will look around my living room today, smile, and feel full of love. So, I thank all of you for your part in my life.
