Thanksgiving Thankfullness

During the month of November lots of people have been posting on Facebook one thing they are thankful for each day. I've been holding out to make my list until Thanksgiving day so that my list could be all together (these are in no particular order).

1. Rob, my fiancee, who is always supportive of me and has made me the happiest woman in the world.

2. Cubby, my cat, who has been with me through thick and thin for 17 years. 

3. God has blessed me with my life and all of the people and things in it.

4. My parents who love me and continue to show me how to be in the world as an adult.

5. My siblings who are the only people who truly understand the crazy of our family.

6. The Schoeck family who is almost as excited to welcome me into the family as I am to become a member of their family.
