I wanted to take a minute to share some things I've been thankful for.
#1 - a loving and patient God - I'm so thankful for His goodness in our lives - knowing that He is good and is working out everything for my good - even when I don't interpret "it" as good right now - I have to remember that it's not about me - thank you Mark for a good discussion and reminder in our Sunday school class yesterday.
#2 - a wonderful husband - I could give lots of examples - but won't bore you with them :o)
#3 - a healthy little boy - it's time once again to sort through his clothes - I had to bring out three boxes of new clothes in this age range to go through - I confess that I do get a little sad putting away the smaller sizes - but, I'm very thankful to be getting out lots of bigger clothes.
#4 - my job - I am so happy to be done with orientation - from the standpoint of not working as much as I had been - even though the paycheck was very pretty. I am scared to be one of two nurses and off orientation - there is just sooooo much to learn. The mundane stuff doesn't scare me (you know, the kid that came in to the ER for an ingrown toenail - what an abuse of the system!!). It's the life threatening stuff that rolls through the doors - and by life threatening - I mean my life, too, at times.
#5 - my extended family and friends - I just can't say enough how thankful I am for all of you - even though we may not talk or see each other much.
#6 - Mark's job - I would still rather be living here than us having to move every year for temporary positions in cities that I love.
