Thankful...

With it being Thanksgiving this month and seeing so many post about things they are thankful for, I want to also. I don't think a month should remind us to be thankful...we truthfully should be thankful all the time, but I do think we tend to loose focus and a month dedicated to Thankfulness can be a good thing and a great reminder for us, especially leading into Christmas. So here goes my thankfulness...even though I know I won't be able to nearly cover everything.

-my Salvation
-my parents, raising me in a Christian home, all they do for me, I don't say thanks near enough
-my siblings
-my nephew and nieces...can't imagine having any kids of my own, I love these kido's so much!
-Anna Britten's hugs-they are the best--(it was worth my 14 hours in a car this weekend just to have a 2 year old hug my neck for 5 minutes straight :)
-my job and the ability to travel doing it
-being able to see God's miracles everyday at work
-my friends, love being able to pick up with all of them so easily, even when we do not see each other all the time, but it seems like we just saw each other yesterday

I have so many other things I am thankful for, it would take me all night to share how richly I have been blessed!

(So I guess the next is really just a favorite thing right now, but seriously I want everyone to know how awesome it is!)

-Shane and Shane's new CD - The One You Need I have not stopped listening to it since I've gotten it...I might wear it out!

On another note...I am putting this out there for prayer. I have been contemplating heading back to school (yes again :) For many of you, y'all know I have always wanted to teach. I really have felt in my heart for the past few weeks the need for a career change. Not meaning getting out of nursing (although sometimes it feels that way) but to be able to do something different with the career. I have started exploring options. I am praying for guidance and direction. I want this to be something that is God's will, not mine!
