There is Always, Always, Always Something to be Grateful for

Due to current economic times, the pressures of life can at times feel truly unbearable. I fell in love with the quote/title above (thanks girls) and have decided I, personally, need to take it to heart. My heart has been extremely touched over the past couple weeks and I feel as if there are so many areas in my life I need to work on. The main being, to be grateful for all that I have. The list of things I am grateful for could go on for literally, five pages. However, there is one face I cannot block out of my mind when it comes to things I am grateful for.







This little angelic face and the child behind it are/is/forever will be something that touches my heart in a way only a mother can understand. He makes me happy when I am sad, makes me feel better when I am sick, makes me laugh when nothing else can and always makes me feel like I have done something right in this life. He is as close to Heavenly as they possibly come and I am so grateful for the person he makes me want to be. Don't get me wrong, we have our days too but I don't think I would be making it through the days that I am without my little Ty guy.

To make this blog almost an unreadable length, I have to put down in words a few other things I am thankful for to help myself feel a little better. The gospel and all it entails, my husband, my testimony, our friends, our health, a roof over our heads, a job, food in our bellies and in our cupboards, and my family. I miss them so much I could pull my hair out. : ) Thanks to all who read for the love and support you offer to me and my family, even if you don't realize it. We love you so much.
