The joy of being a Christian is made full when we're able to thank God for His goodness to us in the good times and the hard. Over this last year I've been humbled as I think of all the ways God has been gracious to me. From the darkest valley to the highest mountain, He has been my strength and my joy. This year, if asked what I'm thankful for I will say, "I'm thankful and blessed that my God is patient and good to me." He alone knows what is best for me and nothing that happens in my life, good or bad, is in vain.
This year we get to celebrate what God has done for us with this charming girl! It's Vienna's first Thanksgiving and yes, she will be tasting the food too! I'm very thankful for her spunky personality and precious smile that would melt the hardest of hearts.
I'm thankful too, for family, grandparents, and old and new friends to celebrate Thanksgiving with. He is good!
