my first gratituesday post

i've decided to try out being a part of gratituesday over at heavenly homemakers for the month of november. with thanksgiving fast approaching i want to focus on the all of the blessings God has brought to my life and to my family. it's so easy to get wrapped up in the commercialism of the holiday season and not really pay much attention to the point of it all.

this week i want to voice my gratitude for my family. the very people who i love the most are the same people i want to have a vacatin from sometimes! i am so grateful for 4 healthy, intelligent children---even when they make messes and whine and disobey. i'm thankful i have a loving, christian husband--even when he leaves his socks on the floor or he lets the trash go so long that i have to start another bag. all of the little inconveniences are so worth it in the grand scheme of things. i'd rather do the dishes 3 times a day and wash 12 loads of laundry a week than be without them. thanks you Lord for my family.
