So Blessed...

So I've been thinking lately how blessed I am. I know I don't acknowledge it near enough but I'm so grateful for all that I have. I have a wonderful husband who I get to have for Eternity. Each day with him is better than the day before. I continually feel like the luckiest girl. I've never been so happy with anyone. He's so good to me. He knows exactly what I need and how to take care of me. No matter what comes, being held in his arms reminds me that everything will be fine and that life is good. I'm grateful he is a worthy priesthood holder who is a great patriarch in our home. I'm glad he is such a hard worker and is diligent in finishing school. We've been blessed with a darling son who has brought more joy to us than I ever imagined. Being a mom is the greatest gift in the world. Nothing can ever replace rocking him to sleep each night. It's priceless to have him so content wrapped up in my arms and just looking into my eyes. His sweet smile melts my heart. I also feel blessed that we are financially stable especially in a time of economic crisis. I'm grateful I was able to finish school and graduate when I did even though at times I didn't think I would ever get there. Now I have a stable job that I happen to love. The benefits are incredible and the pay is good enough to get us through until Steve finishes. We're being able to save right now so hopefully in the Spring we'll find a home we want to buy. I can't wait! Although I'm incredibly anxious, I know there is a right time for everything. I'm grateful to have the peace of mind that as long as we are doing our best to follow what we've been taught, the Lord will provide. I love my family and am very grateful for the wonderful support they are to Steve and I. They all are so willing to help out with Michael while I teach and Steve is in school. I don't know what I would do if we had to rely on Daycare. I love my sisters! They are my very best friends and I love that we are all so close. I'm also so grateful we live in Utah. I know there are a lot of great places out there with good people but I love Utah. I'm comfortable here and I'm glad we can live here. I can't imagine raising a young family anywhere else. I agree...This is the place--Zion and I'm so glad we live here. I love that we are surrounded by temples. What a blessing they are to us! For all of this and more I am grateful and just wanted to share during this holiday season of remembering and being thankful! Love to all!!
