What are you thankful for?

Hello,


It is a little past Thankgiving, but I am grateful to be alive. In Jan 05, I came down with the "flu". I really didnt think much of it untll three days later I passed out in the bathroom and my husband heard the fall. We went to the E.R. and i was told that they were going to keep a few days for obsevation, I kissed my hubby told him I loved him and woke up 3 months later. I didnt know where I was or what had happenned. I had been affected with A.R.D.S. We have a toddler and I missed alot of "firsts", but that is not the point. It took that to make me realize how wonderful life really is. And in a strange way to understand things the way my daughter did. I couldnt talk for monts because of the ventilator and that taught me how she feels, I couldnt walk, so I had to rely of everyone else. It taught me how to be humble. I make sure everyday I tell her I love her and him, becasue I realize now that it is all a gift and can be so easily taken for granted.

I couldn't imagine what that must have been like! I know that
must have been really hard, at least you learned and now are here to
enjoy your family!



I am most thankful for God, and my family! God for giving me
everything I have, including my wonderful family, and for loving me so
much!

It takes something like that to snap out of it and stop taking life for granted.


January 18, 2006 my father was diagnosed with lung cancer. He and my mother live with us so I can take care of him. I am thankful to God for every day I am given with him and to be able to stay home caring for him and my family. My husband had provided wonderful support and is an angel for opening his home to my parents. We must look at every day as a precious gift from God.

I am thankful for life itself. Everyday is a precious gift from God.
Mostly I am thankful that I had 6 beautiful children(all grown) in my lifetime. They are the most precious gift God could have given me.[img]smileys/smiley33.gif[/img]

Hi, All!

I'm thankful for my GREAT husband who has a generous servant heart and is hugely gifted.

I am also thankful that I have two highly creative, but VERY easy to deal with, kids who are fun to parent.

I'm very thankful for my family of course! For my husband who cares for me and provides for our family. For the opportunity to stay home with my kids. For health and all of our needs met.


I'm thankful to God for His saving grace and mercy provided through the death and resurrection of His Son, Jesus to take the punishment I deserve for thepride and selfishnessI have in my heart. I'm thankful that He gives me His Spirit of Power to overcome my shortcomings and for the opportunity to serve Him with a pure and holy heart.


Praise to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly more than I can think or imagine!

I'm new to WAHM and extremely thankful to have been referred by another WAHM. The site has so much valuable information for a newbie!


Aside from that, I am momto 10 children (and grandma to almost 3 grandchildren now).I have so much for which to be thankful! First and foremost, God for blessing me with so many to love. Secondly, for my husband who is truly my best friend and works hard to support our family. And to my children for keeping me young and full of life! Last but not least, I'm thankful I still have my sanity!![img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]
