I LOVE MY LIFE!!!!

I love my life! I know it doesn't always seem like it. I know I complain about not being able to sleep, or my ankle hurting, so on and so forth; but I really do love my life. Let me count the ways:

1) My husband is awesome! He loves me, he loves our children, and he works his a*( off making our life better.

2) My son rules! For the most part when he's not experiencing the uber-emo teen crap, he's a genorous, loving brother and son. He has a heart full of compassion for everyone. He's also a WAY more talented artist than I think he realizes. And most importantly he ADORES his Mom and sister!
3) My punk-rock-goth-peace loving princess rocks my heart! She is so full of life and energy! She's creative,
and athletic! I love watching her interact with other kids, she reminds me of me and her brother. By that I mean she has a genuine desire to love EVERYONE and be friends with EVERYONE. Plus she adores her daddy and brubru!

4) I have the most amazing parents in the world. They've had it rough, and have made mistakes; but they are real and admit that they are not perfect. They want to love on everybody, and show God's love to the parentless and the needy.

5) I have 4 amazing best friends! We don't see eachother as much as we'd like, but when we are together it's like we've never been apart. These 4 girls have been through everything with me, and I hope they know how much appreciate the love and support they have given and given me.

6)I am surrrounded by an wonderful church family. Jacobs Well has been through many things with my family, and has supported us through my multiple unemployments. The leadership encourages me, and I am pumped to have Tim Keel return to us this summer!

7) Even though my bro's irritate me, and have a tendency to make bad decisions, I know they both love me.

8) My sister in law and neice are amazing new additions to my life. God has used them both to remind me of his miracles and how he delivers us from addictions, and darkness.

9)Eldaraenth! Who knew a game started in high school would have such a impact on my life. Thanks to this game I have friends all over the place. Plus I get to play make believe and dress up! Role playing is such a great stress reliever.

10) I inherited such a great group of friends from my husband! This group of guys and their wives/girlfriends have supported both of us continuously and are amazing god-parents to our children. They guys have been strong role-models for Sam and I feel they will be one of the main reasons he will turn out okay.

11) Jehovah Jireh! He is my Provider! His Grace is sufficient for me! a song from my youth, and yet speaks truth everyday in my life. Not only has he provided for me materially, but spiritually and emotionally by giving me such a amazing support system! Because of this I know I am never alone, even when I am at my darkest He makes sure I am taken care of.

So there you go! My Thank you list! This list is the reason I love my life, so whenever I complain just say,"hey, go look at your Thank you list!"
