Thanksgiving...

So tomorrow is Thanksgiving!  I'm so happy!  Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays because it's not as busy as Christmas, so you get a little more time with your family.  Here are some things that I am Thankful for this year:

• My family who always encourages me and loves me
• My friends who make me laugh and/or cry--they encourage and love me
• My faith keeps me strong when I want to give up
• God is my rock and I am forever his pebbel
• Jesus dying on the cross for you and me
• Our soldiers in Iraq and Afgahnistan
• Our Veterans who have given up so much
• Our police men and women who keep our daily lives safe
• The firefighters who save our world from sure disaster
• Forgiveness, for if there were not forgiveness, this world would be miserable and full of hatred.
• My cousin Jimmy is home for Thanksgiving--but ships to Afgahnistan in January ===>
• My family and I have a great relationship and we get along great.
• My writing ability because it's something I love and I hope to be doing for a very long time
• Stephenie Meyer because she gave me my start and I will always owe everything to her
• Robert Pattinson because he's given me so much hope and love and inspiration I can't even begin to explain
• JoAnne (my writing mentor) because she's never afraid to tell me the truth
• Leanna Renee Hieber because she has inspired me on a personal level
• BOOKS! For they keep me alive

This is what I'm thankful for.  What are you thankful for?  Remember--Thanksgiving means so much more than just food and sleeping and football.  Find reason in the season.

Have a wonderful and blessed day!

With eternal love and blessings,
