With a Thankful Heart! Day 1

My amazing friend has challenged us to participate in a 30 days of being Thankful! I am so excited for this! Not only will it force me to blog out loud about the many blessings in our family! It will also allow for me to take some time every day thanking our Lord for the things he has given us!

So... today to start off I am thankful for my sweet, caring, selfless friend Riah (as we call her in our family) God brought her into my life at a lonely time and I am so THANKFUL for the friendship we have! She is the friend that I can call while driving close who graciously welcomes us into her home and always has something to serve us! She will let me come over whenever if I want my nails painted... with her never ending stash of colors!! She is so patient and even when my daughter had trouble being kind or sharing with her son she always encourages me! Her heart is so true and so pure and Christ is so clearly seen in her!

Since she is the one who challenged me I thought it would be a great time to tell how THANKFUL I am to have her :)

You are sooo sweet!! I am so thankful for our friendship as well. I am sad that we haven't seen each other very much lately...I guess that comes with the end of pregnancy and me never leaving my house. I miss our "date nights" and we will definitely be needing some in the next few months when I am sleep deprived and need a night out :)
