Giving thanks

Things I am thankful for this year:

1. Salvation. That Christ died on the cross to atone for my sin, all of it.
2. My marriage. I am thankful for a husband who is an amazing husband, one who is a wonderful spiritual leader for me and our future family. He provides for me and supports me and loves me deeply. I am thankful for a happy marriage, one in which I can feel safe and fall in love with my husband more and more daily.
3. Good friends. My best friend Leeann who also loves me and supports me. My friend Abbi and her loyalty, and all of you other wonderful friends I have. (Those from OS, church, school, etc... you are all wonderful and help make me who I am. It's a great thing when your friends influence your life in such a way that you grow as a person)
4. Family. I am thankful for my family, both mine and Baron's. They love us always and support us when they can.
5. A place to live. I am thankful for a roof over my head. Not only that but a house we own that we never thought would happen but knew needed to happen if we really wanted to adopt.
6. Food! I am thankful for a surplus of food. I am thankful that we have choices, and healthy balanced ones at that.
7. Adoption. I am thankful that I have been adopted into God's family. (Ephesians 1:5) and for the opportunity to adopt here on earth, especially since God is keeping my babies safe until I finally come home!

I am thankful for so many other things, but these I wanted to mention publicly)
