After 14 years of living in this town I am finally feeling as if I am home here. During High School I always had friends here but now that I am back here after college and working God has truly given me some of the best friends. We have a great time together wherever we are! Most of the time we see each other several times a week whether it is at church on Sunday mornings, Bible Studies throughout the week, or just hanging out at night. You can always find us having a good time! It is so great to be able to grow in the Lord with each other. I know He has great things in store for all of us!
My sister. We can be complete opposites but we are always there for each other and lending a helping hand. I know that I can call her and she will be there with a listening/encouraging ear! (That is if she answers her phone---haha) It is fun to get the updates on things that she is doing and for her to share an interest in my life as a teacher. She always has the older sister wisdom that I need. Even if sometimes it takes a while for me to let it soak in. My sister is extremely smart, a loving wife, daughter, and sister and I know that one day she will make a wonderful mom! :) I am looking forward to that part!
Family. Not only am I thankful for my immediate family but also for my extended family. We all have a blast together! I wish that we lived closer to each other so we could get together more often. There are many good stories/laughs/adventures/inside jokes among all of us! I am so thankful to call them not only family but friends. I cherish every moment with all of them and leave anticipating the next time we will all be together!
My Parents. I have two of the most Godly examples as a Dad and Mom! I thank God every day for the parents that he has blessed me with. I do not know where I would be in life without them. They lead me in the way that I should go, whether it is by prayers, directions, advice, or just a listening ear they are always right there. I am truly thankful that they raised my sister and I in a home that sought God in everything. They have taught me that no matter the circumstance God will be faithful and provide! I love them dearly and am looking forward to many more great times with them in life!
Also a wonderful job that I enjoy going to everyday. One where I get to teach and share smiles, hugs, and love with many little children. I pray that I will be a witness to them everyday somehow and someway. I know that God has a plan for my job next year and I am excited to see where He leads me next!
Thankful for the blessings the Lord has given me, are you?
