Giving Thanks

Thanksgiving is on Thursday, so I figured now would be a good time to list some things I am thankful for. One reminder though, you don't have to wait until Thanksgiving/November to be thankful for what you have...

Things I am Thankful For

1. Jeremy
I don't even know where to start... He's there for me all the time, encourages me, pushes me to challenge myself, tells me about the potential he sees in me, completes me and makes me better. Kind words, sweet kisses, warm hugs and love are still as wonderful from him now as they were seven years ago when we first started dating. I'm also thankful for his awesome family that's always so welcoming and loving whenever I visit/see them.

2. My parents
Because they love me unconditionally and continually promise to do so always. I appreciate their hard work towards providing the best they can for me. I also appreciate all that I've learned from them - mainly to have a kind heart, help those that need help, offer a smile, and possibly the most applied lesson, when you love someone - show them daily.

3. FFFCUP & Friends
FFFCUP - I couldn't have asked for better best friends forever. Another year that shows that regardless of distance, we still manage to stay as close as ever. Though, I do wish Tracy was closer...I miss her. Friends - I have also been blessed with wonderful friends that I always have amazing times with.

4. FAMILY - mainly my cousins.
Probably not many other people in my life that I can laugh so hard with all the time. They know all of my flaws, yet still love me. They're like the brothers and sisters I've always wanted, and got, but don't have to be around all the time...if that makes sense, haha.

5. Improvements in my life.
I've lost some weight - still not at my goal, but I've been attempting to take better care of myself, which is a plus. I'm doing well in my graduate program. I'm starting to really take some time to think of what makes me happy and do things that work towards that goal.

There are many things to be thankful for, but these are just a few of mine.
