Day 10 - I am thankful for my house. Sometimes I catch myself thinking a step ahead, you know a bigger, newer, nicer place sometime down the road but it only takes me a moment to remind myself this house has everything we need and all the warmest memories that truly make it a home. Its the house I brought my baby home from the hospital to, where Rory spent her puppy days, where we've had get togethers with friends and visits from family all this and more remind me what blessing it is to have this place.
Day 11 - I am thankful for financial security. Even with addition of baby and me going part time. With so many out of work all over the country the past couple years, I am thankful the Ryan and I both having good jobs the provide us with the life we have. When you think of a global view of the world, we are truly wealthy and do not want to take that for granted. My prayer is we will live within whatever means we are given at any point in time, be content where are at and bring glory to God by how we steward what he has entrusted.
Day 12 - I am thankful for our caregivers for Ava. The friends that babysit Ava while I work are wonderful. Trusting them and knowing she is getting one on one attention while she is still so tiny is such a blessing. They are so responsive to her needs and really care about her. Ava always has big smiles for them when she's them!
