Thankful Thursday

Several bloggers do "Thankful Thursday" so I thought I would do that today.

1. I am so very thankful that God blessed us with two wonderful daughters. I just can not imagine my life without them and don't even want to try! We have had a week of appointments. Madison had her EUA on Monday, Meka had her 5 year old checkup on Wednesday, and today Meka had her 6 month dental cleaning. She is such a brave girl. She even let them take pictures of her teeth today. She is setting such a good example for her little sister, who will have her first dental appointment right after Meka's in 6 months. She did really well for her doctor appointment too except when it came to getting a shot. She was so upset. If I could have taken the shot for her, I would have! This is what her face looked like when she was told she was getting a shot. Not much has changed in four years. This picture by the way was taking during her medical exam in China in June of 2005.2. I am so very thankful that God blessed me with an absolutely wonderful husband who is driving 30 minutes home tonight to be with me because I am nervous about the person who has been doing the breakins. Michael is on call tonight at another hospital tonight that is a good 30 minutes away. He usually just sleeps there, especially since he has to work there tomorrow. I am so relieved that he is coming home!

3. I am so thankful for my girlfriends! It is like that saying "A true friend knows all about you and likes you anyway." Well, they know all about me but like me anyway and I am forever thankful for friends that don't judge but say "I am right there with ya sister!"

4. I am so very thankful that I live in America! I love my country! I am just prayin that is doesn't go to %&#@ in a hand basket.

5. I am so very thankful for a pastor that teaches the Bible and doesn't sugarcoat or tickle ears! We are so very blessed to have him as our pastor. He is a great teacher!

6. I am so very thankful for our family. I love all of them so very dearly, more than they will ever know. It just makes me want to cry thinking about! Sure, we have our "issues" but I love them anyway.

Well, I am getting carried away. All of this to say that it is a thankful day every day!
