Thank You

God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one of them to say "thank you?" I would like to take the next several to thank everyone in my life who has allowed me to become the person I am today. I have had several influential people that have guided and inspired me in my path. My parents taught me how to strive to be the best that I can be in marriage, motherhood, and in my spiritual life. The love that they showed not only to us but to each other led me to the belief that all is possible with just love. My Dad is the most spiritual man I know I love that he has mirrored his life as the bible leads us to and with that he passed on the love of God and the hope that all things are possible with God. As I hit a rough patch I always feel a peace knowing that he is praying for me and my family daily and it gives me the strength to carry on. My Mother always leads with such grace and dignity in all situations both good and bad and that has pushed me to always strive in the same direction. She has always been someone I look to for guidance and strength. My sisters have always been there for me and been in my corner and even when others don't seem to have my best interest at heart I know that they do. My kids have been my biggest inspiration to accomplish the unaccomplishable they are always there with hugs and kisses no matter what mood I am in. My husband where do I start with him? He is the knight and shining armor of my life and the protector and provider of this family. The last eleven years have been a joy and a total blessing because he has been right by my side through it all. My friends are always there to lend a ear when I need to talk and an encouraging word when I need one. To all of you in my life I THANK YOU with out you I would not be the person I am today. I hope and pray that my kids will be blessed with such great people in their lives. I hold each and everyone of you in my heart and daily pray that God will bless you for blessing me!
