Giving Thanks

This year has been crazy insane. Jaysen left. My grandparents died 6 months apart from each other. The economy has gone to Hell in a handbasket.

And yet there is plenty to be thankful for.

1. I have a fabulous husband whom I love very dearly.
2. Our beautiful son is happy, healthy and makes me laugh every day.
3. Even though I enjoy sleeping in, I am very grateful to have a job to wake up for.
4. Ahhh...Edward. Seriously, I am so glad that I have small distractions from life.
5. I am always beyond proud and grateful to have been born in a country where my pursuit for an education is guaranteed and I have rights as a human ... even though I am of the superior gender.
6. I like being a girl.
7. I like boys...well, men. One in particular...but he's half dead, fictional, and no real threat to Jaysen. (Which is a relief, I'm sure. He's undoubtedly lost sleep over it.)
8. I'm thankful that Matthew doesn't know hunger but feels for the children that do.
9. Life on NBC. I love Damien Lewis.
10. Though I have lost many loved ones. I am thankful that I was blessed enough to know them in this lifetime. I believe that knowing them has made me a better person.
