Life!

I have these days that I am so thankful for life.

I am so thankful for the friendship of people who know us well. These are people who have traveled life with us and know our shortcomings, and love us anyway. These are the people with stories of their own whom I have shared tears and triumphs.

There is a STORY behind every picture.

I am thankful for the heroes in my life, like Pastor Dan who just got back from Iraq for his third time serving as a chaplain in the military, and his wife, Kris, who supported him at home while raising four kids. They have been through a lot. They are beautiful people.

I am thankful for the chance to have fun in the sun, playing, driving too fast on four wheelers…..and the fact that everyone came out alive at the end of the day….whew!!! Yes, I know that we don’t have helmets on…..that is Pastor Dan’s fault….he told me to relax.  I suppose after three tours in Iraq he has the right to tell this to me!

Do you ever have one of those days you just feel blessed? Today was one of those days for me.
