Gratitude…

Every day for the last 9 days I’ve noticed that my facebook feed is filled with posts that are a part of what people are calling the #thankfulchallenge.  Well, as I read each post I can’t help but reflect on the things I am most thankful for.  I’m blessed, and I try to continuously give thanks to God for the abundance of blessings that I have, but I like the intentional nature of this challenge.  I’m not one to play along with facebook challenges, so I thought that instead of the posting  on facebook, I’ll post here.  I’m 8 days behind, but that’s okay; I won’t have perfect attendance for this one, but I’ll try my best. 

Day 1… or 9

Today I am most thankful for my kind and understanding husband who loves me unconditionally.  He’s my very best friend and I’m blessed to have him to spend my life with. After 8 years together (3 of marriage) I can honestly say that I love him more and more each day.  We talk from time to time about how awesome it is that regardless of how much we’ve changed over the years (believe me, people change a lot between 18 and 27), we still fit. Is it always easy? No. Is it always fun? No. Is it always worth it? Absolutely! We depend on each other, stick up for each other and can have full conversations without ever having to say a word. I’m thankful the he gets me…and loves me anyway.

I told you people change a lot throughout the years!  Our oldest pictures are pre-digital camera time, so I had to settle for the oldest I could find.  :)
