Happy Thanksgiving!

Today is a day of reflection, a day to be thankful for the people and things in our lives that we are truly blessed to have. I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for things in my life that I am greatful for.

First, I am thankful that in this less than wonderful economy, I have a job. I have a good job that pays well, and has benefits. Many people in our country cannot say the same about their own jobs, if they even have one right now. Along with being greatful for my job, I am thankful that everyday I have a safe, warm home, nice clothes, and food on the table at every meal. This sounds so small, but it is such a big thing to be greatful for.

Next, there are many people in my life that I am thankful to have. Jeremy, my husband. I am more than greatful for him. He is my best friend, and my inspiration. He helps me through every situation, and inspires me to be my best. My parents, they have supported me for the last 24 years, and I know will continue to support me through whatever life throws at me. They have been not only the best parents I could have ever asked for, but the best of friends to me and Jeremy as well. Mom and Dad C., they also have shown never ending love and support through good times and in bad. They have been an inspiration to both of us, and show strength and compassion through everything they do. Courtney and Jim, These two people have been great friends, and siblings to someone who has never had any siblings before! They have shown us how we can grow with each other and bring out the best in each other, they are truly a couple to admire! Josh, he has been a brother to me as well as Jeremy. We have learned more about each other since July than we have ever known before. One thing I admire about Josh is that he is strong. He works very hard to be the best father and brother he can possibly be, and that is admirable. Kim, she has taken me under her wing and treats me as a sister. Kim is someone that I know I can always rely on when I need someone the most.

These are just a few of the people that I am incredibly greatful for. I am so lucky to have everyone in my life, and I would just like to take this opportunity to say thank you to every one of you. You have all touched my life in some way or another, and for that, I am very, very thankful.

Happy Thanksgiving!
