Thanksgiving Week

With thanksgiving being just a few days away - I am starting to reflect more on the things I am thankful for. The list is sooooo long, but I really feel it is important to spend a few minutes on each and let GOD hear my gratitude. I also am convinced that the people in my life need to hear it as well, sometimes I know I don't always show it. So over the next few days I will be editing this blog post to include different things I am thankful for.

11-22 There are so many things! Yesterday I reflected alot on how grateful I am to have Jesus in my life.....Merilyn Pullen and her children (Star Rick Ron & Cindy) introduced me to my lord & savior.

11-23 Family was very heavy on my heart today....I come from a family that is spread out all over the country, but it only takes a moment with my eyes closed to feel their presence. I honor each and every one for their love and support. My sister, Wendy - as you all know from previous posts - I don't think I would have had the strength to even start treatment without her - I'm not even sure my brothers realize the determination they give me; they are my BIG brothers; I always want to make them proud - Brad & Cony; their wives - Gina & Diane are the angels on my shoulders. My mother, Colleen - She is my daily dose of reality, she keeps me grounded and goes out of her way to bring about some kind of normalcy into my life. My husband - my ROCK! His continued support and unconditional love inspire me, many times his shoulders are soaked with my tears, he holds me through the side effects, and continuously encourages me to move forward - together. My grown children - Joey and Ashley - They empower me - with hope and belief that there is nothing I can't do - they keep me motivated. My grandson - Jaxon - my sunshine, my why, my inspiration - he keeps me laughing, positive; his love gives me the will to take the next treatment. Thank you GOD, for my family!

11-24 Giving Thanks - I am so blessed!

11-25 My team - all 267 of them! GOD has blessed me with such dynamic women & men to share the hopes and dreams of becoming something more! I am grateful for the personal growth and the relationships we have all built together - irreplaceable!

11.26 My Friends - Today I get to hop on a plane to see 2 of my dearest friends - Katie & Becca - even though there will be work involved there will also be plenty of time to hug, hope and pray together! I am hoping to have the opportunity to see some family while I am there too! I have recently been visited by another dear friend from high school - Dee - Having the opportunity to be in her presence was definitely a road down memory lane! I am so grateful for her and the time we shared! We laughed and cried (even though she won't admit it :)) And then there is Lorie - Lorie keep me positive and every cure day (Thursday) she put's something in my email box to make me smile. I am so grateful for the dear friends I have - Thank you Jesus for bringing such amazing people into my life!

There is so much to be thankful for in my....... I am very blessed!
