Thanksgiving Eve

It has been a very hard week so far, and unfortunately, it really won't get better until 12/1 when my hopefully comes home. We all go through rough spots in our lives. I remember going through some pretty rough ones in my early 20's. I'm so thankful to have made it through those times with the help of my family. Again, my family has been wonderful support for Caleb as he is going through some very rough times. It is hard since this is happening around the holidays. But, I'm reminded often that I am so thankful for the life that I do have. So, I wanted to share some of these things with you:

1. I'm thankful to have a healthy, caring, funny, smart, helpful son.
2. I'm thankful to have a wonderful family who supports us through the good times and the bad.
3. I'm thankful for a great dog who recognizes when I really just need to cuddle to feel better.
4. I'm thankful for a job that allows me to grow and to learn more about an industry I know very little about.
5. I'm thankful for some wonderful friends who share the same interest that I do and who are there to help me have fun.
6. I'm thankful that I'm alive and can be here today to share these all with you through my blog.

Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving! It will be a hard one at my house, but I know that we are going to work diligently to remember what we are thankful for and to not concentrate on the fact that Caleb isn't here to celebrate with us.
