BLESSINGS

It is almost that time of year again where we start to reflect and count our blessings.  We have so much to be thankful for.  Here is a small list.

1. Being together as a family
2. A new home all our own
3. Tracy's new promotion at work-they see his value just as I do!
4. My new job at Union High School-odd, never thought I would go back. Luckily, they recognized my experience and gave me a better starting pay!
5. My son deciding on his own to serve a mission and the Church deciding to lower the age for missionaries so he can go NOW!
6. Enjoying Roosevelt more than I thought I would.  I do like that people out here seem to have more of a "live and let live" mindset.  People aren't as competitive when it comes to material things and that is like a breath of fresh air.  There is no traffic so I can get to work faster, to the store faster, everywhere...faster.
7. I have great kids.  I hope I am always thankful for each one as an individual.  Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses and I hope that as my kids get older I can continue to appreciate them just for who they are.
8. My family is wonderful.  They support me and they love me no matter what.  We don't get to see each other nearly often enough, but we enjoy the moments we have.  We don't sweat the small stuff and we all try to be kind to each other.
More blessings to come as we roll into November...
