Lifes Like That

Thanksgiving it coming up pretty close in the United States and because of this, Jenn has decided to hold a contest. To enter the contest all you need to do is a short post on what your most thankful for. Drop over to her site and let her know where your post is and then your in!

What I am most thankful for is my family.

The last few years have been pretty rough on our family as we have lost a few family members. In 2004 I lost my dad and my mom within four months of each other. And recently I lost my mother-in-law and an uncle. So I have learned the hard way that life is way to short and everybody should value any time that they have with their family members. I have also learned the hard way that family members can be a pain and very insensitive, but because their family, I love them in spite of themselves. Not only do I cherish the time that I have with the elderly or small children, but I thank god everyday that I found my husband 13 years ago. He is the best thing that ever happened to me and I really don’t know what life would be like without him. So, it is for these reasons that the main thing in life that I am thankful for is my entire family.

How about you??
