Happy Thanksgiving week. Admittedly, I had planned to send out Thanksgiving cards/letter this year because it seemed appropriate. Unfortunately, this holiday is upon us and I haven't yet accomplished that task. I did sit down to write it a few times, and kept getting hung up. Wow. Where to you start giving thanks when you've been showered with blessings? Thank you. Thank you. We want to take a moment to thank each of you for the very important role you played in our lives this year. What a difference a year makes. Last year at this time we found out we were going to have a new niece/nephew. . . now we have one of each and a Logan!
I'm grateful for. . .
-my faith, which allowed me to experience the events of the last year in a very meaningful way
-our family who stepped in and loved us unconditionally when we felt like that's all we had to lean on
-our friends who have provided immeasurable support
-a husband who has more patience than anyone I've ever met and sifts so quickly through my occasional ugly words and actions and brings me back to the heart of what matters--faith, hope, and love
-each and every day with Logan and the privilege of watching him grow and change so quickly
-the gift of the Holy Spirit to calm my fears which allows me to experience true joy
-my job and patients who challenge me daily
-hugs at just the right moment
-tears, laughter, and smiles, which serve as an outlet for my emotions
Words can't express our sincere gratitude for you, friends and family. I hope you take a moment to reflect on the blessings in your life as well. Have a wonderful week, squeeze your loved ones a little harder this year, and please please travel safely.
Love to you!
Michelle
