As Christmas time rolls around I can't help but be thankful for my life and most of all for my FAMILY. Now I know that this may sound like the typical Christmas time thankful speech, but here it goes anyway.
This year I realized just how lucky I am to have such a supportive husband. About March of this year I (out of the blue) told him that I would like to start a preschool in our home. This was the first time that I had even thought about this, but something in me was longing for a bit more. I was looking for a way to use my teaching talents and with Emma getting to preschool age I believed that it was God's way of telling me that this is what I should be doing right now. So here I was pitching this idea of a preschool to my loving husband and of course he helped me way all the pros and cons, but in the end he supported my decision. It is funny because if the situation had been turned around I'm not sure what my reaction would have been, but this is just one of the many reasons I am so lucky. Justin understands me in ways that many don't, he knows that I get hair brained ideas and that I feel a sense of urgency to fulfill those ideas. His loving support means the world to me and for that and everything else he does for me and the kids I will love and thank him forever.
Logan...my little boy is unlike any other. He's kind and loving, cuddly and warm, he has one of the deepest voices for a 22 month old toddler, and most of the time he is a goof ball. Logan is my cuddle buddy in the mornings, my man of many different sounds effects, he is my constant cheerleader in his own way, and seems to amaze me everyday with something new. He keeps life exciting and is a prime example of the phrase "all boy". I am so thankful the smiles he gives me throughout the day and the hugs as well, the bedtime stories he loves to read, and the drum solos played on everything that we have.
Emma...my sweet little girl. She's a girly girl to the core, she loves lipgloss and dress up, and anything that has to do with princesses. She is my shopping buddy and talking buddy, my constant companion. She's kind and courteous and tries to be a good friend to all her buddies. She is one of the best sisters, she always has words of encouragement for Logan along with sweet hugs and kisses. I am thankful for her in so many ways, she constantly challenges me to be a positive women, one that she can be proud of. I'm thankful for her beautiful smiles, her questions, her singing and story telling excitement.
The Lord has blessed me with a wonderful husband and two amazing children and for this I am SO THANKFUL.
For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. ~ Psalm 57: 10
May You Have A Blessed And Thankful Holiday! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
