Thanksgiving Thoughts....

My aunt decided to post everyday this month about the things she was thankful for. I think that is a fabulous idea, however I don't have time to post everyday, so here is my list of 30 things that I am thankful for....in no particular order.

1. I am thankful for a loving, compassionate God who is ALL things at ALL times.
2. I am thankful for my wonderful, loving husband and best friend, Mark. He is a wonderful Christian man trying to follow God's will for his life and I love him so much! I could get sappy, but I'll refrain.
3. I am thankful for my beautiful daughter, Calloway! I can't imagine life without her.
4. I am thankful for my parents, who did their best in trying to raise me.

9. I am thankful for my job (even though many days I feel like I'm on a roller coaster).
