Thanksgiving
.... A time to reminisce about those in our lives that we are thankful for. I have so much to be grateful for. My daughter, my child who is stubborn, impulsive and still melts my heart with her smile... she gave me the most precious of all gifts a woman could ever desire this year. My first grandchild. He holds my heart. In his chubby little face that smiles as I peek-a-boo with him, I find the greatest love of all. My son-in-law, the Good Lord put him in my life to show me patience and understanding, but I'm thankful that he loves my daughter the way he does. (I could go on and on here about the flip side of thanksgiving about him, but I will stay on point here.) My son. He is my delight, watching him prosper, I feel pride in him. His fiancé. I'm thankful she loves my son the way he needs to be loved. I am as thankful that my children have the ability to love back the way they do. My fiancé. I'm thankful that I didn't run. I love him more everyday. It's right, it's just and it's good. For him I lower my head and raise my arms in thanks to the Lord. My mom. Thanksgiving that she's with me. When it comes to our parents, we will ever remain children. I am her child. I am thankful for that. My daddy. He's here, he's sound, and he's full of life. I've been blessed with another full year of having my daddy walk this earth with me. He is my hand holder, I am still his little girl. My jobs, my friends, my health, my wealth... (that's a joke) my home. Be it ever so humble, there really is no place like home. I'm thankful that I have a home that I want to come home to. I'm thankful that inside this house is the man with whom I will share the rest of my life with, the man that loves me more. The man that makes my house a home worth coming home to. I have so much to be appreciative of, and I recognize it.
and I am smiling
love me later~tj
