Thanksgiving and Gratitde

11/27/2014

Even though this year has been one of great loss and sorrow for me, I am trying to remember how blessed I still am and that God has a plan for me.  So I made myself write a gratitude list.

Here are the top 3 things I am grateful for despite my grief:
1. Sixteen fabulous years with the man of my dreams, my soulmate, the love of my life,  the great love we shared, and knowing he never wanted to leave me.
2. My wonderful son, Steven, who is my strength, my reason to get up in the morning, and a constant reminder of the love I shared with his daddy.
3. My family and friends who continue to support me during the most difficult time of my life, offer help without my asking, share my love for Jared by listening to my stories and sharing their own, and understanding that Jared is still a part of my family and will always be a part of my life.

As you celebrate Thanksgiving with your loved ones, remember to treasure the time and to count your blessings.
