So Much To Be Thankful For!

With Thanksgiving just a few days away, it makes me think (even more than I already do) about all of the things that I am thankful for. And this Thanksgiving, I am thankful for so much.

I am thankful that Vahe and I have been so incredibly blessed to have found one another, and that our marriage is strong and healthy.

I am thankful to be carrying our child – our son. In just a few short months, he will bring more joy to our lives than we could ever imagine.

I am thankful for a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.

I am thankful for my parents, who have always loved and supported me throughout everything in my 28 years. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without them.

I am thankful for Vahe, who has taken care of me every single step of my pregnancy. He rubs my feet almost every single night! :)

I am thankful for a roof over our heads, food on our table, hot water to take showers, and a warm bed to sleep in at night.

I am thankful that Reese is potty trained. He still needs work in other areas, but I am thankful for him, and the joy he has brought to our lives.

I am thankful for my wonderful friends, who have become like family.

I am thankful for our new President. He represents a country and a world that I am excited to bring our son into. I am thankful for him bringing so much hope and faith back into the homes of our country.

I am thankful for chocolate, York peppermint patties, McDonald’s, pudding, bread, & chocolate (yes, again). Thank you for making my pregnancy go smoothly.

I am thankful for maternity pants. Boy, will those ever come in handy for Thanksgiving dinner!

I am thankful for McDonald’s.

I am thankful that I have family and friends who support us and surround us with love day in and day out.

I am thankful for technology – everything from the ultrasound the allowed us to see our son jumping around and playing with his umbilical cord, to text messaging, to the ever-addicting Facebook.

I am thankful for sweatpants and sweatshirts.

I am thankful for Tums and hand sanitizers.

I am thankful for all of the blessings in my life, no matter how big or small. I pray that I continue to be blessed.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I hope you take a moment to think of all the things you are thankful for!

Love,
Lauren
