I was planning on posting each day of November, even after Thanksgiving, of something that I am thankful for. Becoming a teacher and talking with my students Monday-Friday, I have quickly learned how blessed I am and how I take so many things for granted!
Tuesday, the 1st, was a super busy day- Left home at normal time- 6:45AM- Taught all day, Homebound for a sweet brother and sister for two hours, quick trip to McDonalds for supper, and then to Bible Study. I walked back in my door to the house about 10 PM. I went straight to the bed and slept like a baby. :) That is my excuse for not blogging yesterday.
That is the reason I will be combining Days 1 and 2 together :)
Day 1: Thankful for John Thomas
This one is a no brainer! I am SO thankful that the God sent him to be in my life! I love my husband so very much! I never knew this kind of love and I am so thankful I didn't until I met him. He is a great provider for us. He has so much patience (majority of the time ;) ) with me! When we first were married I had just graduated college, worked a part time retail job, and was studying to take the PRAXIS to get my teaching certificate. He was so wonderful for not making me work a full time job so I could study. August came and no teaching job was in sight. However, we discussed and prayed about what to do. I was able to only work my retail job about two days a week and subbed the rest of the week. It was so important that I kept my name in at schools, I might not have the job I have now if it weren't for subbing so much! I will never be able to repay John Thomas for that. I could go on and on about what all he does for us but I won't.
I am just glad we are so in love with each other!
Thank you for blessing my life babe, I love you!
This is my most favorite picture from our wedding!
Day 2: Thankful for Parents
Where do I start? I love, adore, admire, and on and on my parents! They gave me the best life growing up, and still! My momma and daddy are my rock! There has not been a day that has gone by where I have not talked to at least one of them. They sacrifaced for my brother and myself and made sure we had everything we needed and majority of what we wanted growing up. They are two of the most unselfish people I know. I am eternally thankful for them! I can not imagine life without either of them. I pray daily that when John Thomas and I are blessed to be parents that I can be half the parent that my parents have been to me.
Mom and Dad, I love you bunches! Thank you for everything- you are my world!
This, of course, was at my wedding last May. They made every dream of mine about that day come true. I'm forever thankful!
