24 Days of Thanks { Day 17 and 18 }

Day 17

I'm telling you!

These Days of Thanks are hard to decide!

I wanna do more than one thing

then I get so overwhelmed I end of just trying to think of the little things

Within the last 5 minutes

I have thought about all the wonderful women in my life that I am thankful for!

A grandmother that is the most loving caring woman I have ever met 

Not a bad bone in her body

She always knows exactly what to say

and NEVER NEVER NEVER Judges anyone

she is so forgiving and a true true christian

If I even become half the woman she is I would be truly blessed

A mother who is the true best friend

No matter what, my heart bursts when I think about my mom

I'm even teary eyed typing this as we speak

she means that much to me!!

Life would not be the same without her

No day goes by that I don't talk to her

I just can't, I HAVE to have some kind of contact everyday

A Sister in Law that is the most amazing mother and wife

she is a true saint

I love watching her interact with my nephews

and she is an amazing teacher

she is one person that I see that is truly doing what they were put on earth for

to be a teacher and mother

Oh man and all my friends, Aunts, Mike's mom Marge,

gosh the list could go on and on about the amazing women in my life

I have to say it's all these different women that make me who I am

And for that I am SO SO Thankful!

Day 18

Today on my walk/run I was listening to my music

and thinking about all kinds of things

I always forget how much I love "Me" time when I run

I don't even remember what I was thinking about

but I suddenly stopped

took in a huge breath of the cold air and thought......

What if I could never do this again?

I take life and the little things for granted

Life can flash right before your eyes

I just want to grab hold of it and hold on tight

I want to embrace every moment of it!

I get so caught up in things I don't have

or things I can't control

I just need to really count my blessings!

As I was thinking of all this I was approaching our house

and I thought wow the sky is always beautiful here

Maybe because we have finally found our place

our home

the place we want to stay

Happy Friday!
