Thankful

I have a lot to be thankful for these days.

-My God who knows me so well and shows unconditional love. I have learned so much about patience and trust this year (and I am still learning).

-A loving husband who has been full of encouragement and understanding these past few months. I'm so glad to share this adventure with him.

-A cozy home that has already been blessed by our family and friends.

-Precious families to share the holidays with... We were spoiled by my parents this Thanksgiving (I'll post more on that later), and are excited to visit our Texas family in just a few short weeks! Heath and I were able to share some much needed time with Granddad Daniels. I am very thankful for him and the time we were able to share last week.



-A church community that has blessed us already! May we continue to grow in relationships and Agape love.

-Our Portland friends! Thank you for embracing us and making us feel a part of your community. :)

-On a less important, but still thankful, note.... I can still wear my wedding dress! I slipped it on for a while last Sunday and enjoyed its beauty.



-Though there are many more things, I will end my list with this: I am thankful that I have a job! As of last Monday, I will be a full-time nanny for two little ones that live on a barge. Yes, that's right, a barge... really it's a large houseboat, but it's fascinating for sure. Yesterday was my first day! Pray that I transition smoothly into this full-time gig, and that the kids warm up to me quickly. I'm really excited and blessed to be working for such a lovely family!

Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving friend. I have missed you!
