As I woke up this morning to the sound of my daughter yelling at her dad, I realized that I have a lot to be thankful for. Although 2011 wasn't the best year for me, (at least not until Septemberish) I have a lot in my life. I have a beautiful, healthy, baby girl. I have a husband who most of the time is the best man a girl could ask for. {He has his moments, but who doesn't?}
I have my health, for the most part I am quite healthy and able to function for day to day living. I have my mom and my brother who I am really close to. They are my rocks when I am weak and they are there for us whenever I need them to be, as well as vice versa. I see how great being a family unit can be and I am so thankful for them.
I have a few handfuls of great friends, I have a bunch of acquaintances, and I have people who I say hello to once every 6 months or so. But the people I surround myself with are upbuilding, encouraging and love me for me.
Currently I was accepted and am doing well in college. I am thankful for this opportunity to do well for my family. It has helped so much in my life, it has made my husband proud of me as well as made him think about what he can do for himself and his future. It's a wonderful feeling and to see him get encouraged to do something to reach his potential makes my heart swell with pride.
2011 was a lousy year. But thanks to faith in God, a lot of love and help from friends, family and of course my husband and daughter, I am quite certain that 2012 will be one heck of a year!
