Thankful

So we in the Midwest are a little tired of snow in April. That being written, I wanted to share all of the things that we, as a family, are thankful for this "spring". Every morning we thank God for the change of seasons where we live. Now understand that we are ready for a new change of season, but we are thankful that we get to have snow, rain, sun, and wind. Due to the interesting weather, we were able to experience water in the basement. Now the parts that give us thanks in this experience are the friends and family that helped us various days and the friends that offered to help in any way once they heard of our adventure. Also we are thankful for the crew that is coming to fix this issue before the thaw so another big THANKS. Again with the weather, my daughter and I flew into the ditch and we are thankful that both of us are safe and that my husband was not into school yet so he and the other kids came back for us. Thankful for safety. Thankful for our wonderful neighbor and his John Deere tractor for pulling the car out and that we were able to connect with him as it has been too long. Thankful that with these events in our lives that we have not had much of our adoption process happening. We are ready for the next step, but based on our past couple of weeks, we are thankful that we were not asked to make decisions nor in need of paper work to be completed. If you glance back at the blog post, I hope that you see so many things that we are thankful for in our lives. We are in a wonderful community and work with amazing people in our jobs. We have supportive and patient friends. We have family members who help when it is most needed. And we have a God who loves us no matter what is happening. We are so thankful. As you begin this weekend, we hope that you reflect on the things in your life that cause you to give thanks and that you be sure to say THANK YOU. Thank you for reading this post and for joining us in our second adoption adventure. Happy Spring. Psalm 107:1 "Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever."
