As I look back over the past year I'm reminded of how very much I have to be thankful for. It's been a hell of a year yet I have so much to be thankful for: A healthy baby girl. An incredible husband. An amazing family. Fantastic girlfriends. It's been one of the hardest years of my life and all of these blessings have helped keep me going on hard days. The bitterness of sorrow has magnified our blessings all the more. I've definitely learned this year that life is what you make it...you can choose to wallow in sorrow or you can choose to be thankful. It's been a year of putting on my big girl pants and putting one foot in front of the other and trusting in something much bigger than myself.
For my baby girl, my husband, my family I am thankful.
For my girlfriends, I am thankful.
For lessons learned, I am thankful.
For hope fulfilled, I am thankful.
Okay on to the pics....
