Today I am thankful for having the most amazing, understanding, wack-a-loon, caring, full of love, funny-as-all-get-out (aka pee-my-pants-daily-laughing) family. We are a far cry from normal but then again, what is normal anyways? I am truly blessed beyond blessed to have them in my life. Seriously, they are the best.

Together these people have made me who I am today; loving, sentimental, sensitive, family loving, risk-taking, passionate, strong-willed, artistic, creative person I am today. I wouldn’t be this person if it wasn’t for them. Thank you so very much for loving me (when I was unlovable) and teaching me (when I was bull-headed) and showing me (when you didn’t think I was looking) all that I ever needed to know. Today and every day I am thankful that I am a part of this family. I love y’all ♥

Today I am extremely thankful for my love, Mr. Cutler. Oh, how I love this sweet man. Twenty years he’s walked through this crazy life beside me. I honestly have no idea what I would do without him. He has taken me to the hospital countless times on a moments notice and never complained once. He has sat in many a waiting room during a ridiculous amount of surgeries, even sleeping in one overnight. I’m certain he has spent countless hours worrying, but he would never tell me that. He has taken over all the household chores without hesitation. He coaches little league cheerleading simply because the girls LOVE him, while hoping to make a difference in their life. He has taken on so much extra responsibility while my business has skyrocketed. He is always there with a hug and knows the right words to say. He is truly a very special man and I am blessed to have him in my life.

I love this time of year and how it makes me feel sooooooo warm, cozy, grateful, thankful and LOVED. For the past few years, in November I’ve done 30 Days of Thankful.  I’m going to do mine with a photo a day here on my blog. Hopefully you can play along. And if you do, share it with me in the comments section!

Today I am thankful that my sins are forgiven thanks to Jesus Christ my Savior and Lord. And for His undeserving grace He shows me daily. Without Him, my life would be a broken mess. I’m super thankful He has taken me and molded me into the Christian woman I am and for the hand He has had in my life since the moment I was born. Super thankful that even though people may fail me, He never will!!  I find comfort in that daily.
