Thanksgiving

Today as I sit with my girls watching the Macy's parade, I have been reflecting (of course) on all the things I am so very, very thankful for. 
I am thankful for my dear friends from East Pete Mennonite. I am thankful for my family, I am thankful for the Smokers, and how their children have touched my heart. I am thankful for the Orendorfs, too, and how they had us down for the most fun weekend of our whole summer! I am thankful for my sisters. I am thankful that I have a place to live. I am thankful that we have enough food to eat. I am thankful that Kevin and the girls have been blessed with good health (even though Khloe seems to have been 'blessed' with my sense of balance...) I am thankful that this Christmas we will be able to get a Christmas tree, and buy the girls presents. I am so thankful for Kevin's job, and steady income. I am thankful for my doctors. I am forever thankful for the doctors at Maternal Fetal Medicine for saving Korinne's life. I am thankful to the NICU doctors and nurses who took care of my precious girls. I am thankful for people who gave so generously to us last holiday season. I'm thankful that I have shoes, and clothes. I'm thankful that when the girls need new clothes, we are able to buy them.  I am thankful for my little niece or nephew that will be here soon, and I am so thankful for Becca's smooth pregnancy. 
I am most thankful for the Lord, and the relationship I am able to have with Him. I am thankful that he teaches me new things each day, and it never gets old! I am thankful for the love of my life, Kevin. I am thankful for the love he shows me, and that the Lord has grown our love for each other over the past two years. I am so thankful for the biggest miracle of my life, Korinne. I am just as thankful for my precious Khloe. I am thankful that God entrusted me with two of his beautiful children!
