Thankful

With everything that we have been through this year, we still have alot to be thankful for! We are thankful for:

1. God- because without him none of us would be where we are today
2. Rickys job- jobs are so hard to come by in todays economy so I am very thankful for his job that God has provided our family with.
3. All of our family and friends.  We have gotten so much help and support through everything this year, Im especially thankful to everyone bc we couldnt have got through our 7 week nicu stay without the help, support, and prayers from everyone!
4. Every single nurse, therapist, doctor, and surgeon who has helped our little boy!
5. Insurance that pays all the healthcare providers.
6. Our home with working heat and air conditioning- so many people in our country are homeless or dont have efficient heat and air, Im thankful for both
7. Our 2 cars-everyone isnt able to even have 1 car, so I am thankful that we have a family car that everyone can fit in and ride everywhere we go together and am thankful for Rickys to have a little car that is great on gas he can drive to and from work in.
8. For my family's education-For mine and Ricky's college education and Bella's preschool education :)
9. For Tripp- he is so sweet and a wonderful baby, I am blessed to be his momma :)
10. For a healthy, smart, and outgoing preschooler.

This is just a very small list of things that I am thankful for, and I hope that everyone else is thankful for those everyday things that we HAVE to have (even though they are things that we could actually do without they just make our lives easier).
