This was supposed to be written closer
to Thanksgiving, but traveling and family and friend time got in the way. I’m not sorry ;-)
Anyway, this has been a pretty big year
and I felt like making a thankful list. So, it works well as a last day of the year post too...
I’m thankful for this healthy baby girl growing
inside me and all her cool movements I feel and her daddy experiences.
I’m thankful for her daddy, my amazing
husband, who has been very patient with my preggo sick times, too sleepy to
clean the house times, and I can barely move and need a massage times. I have truly seen him live out “in sickness
and in health” this year.
I’m thankful for several big trips this
year before that slows down a little for several years. Cancun for our 2nd anniversary
before we started planning for baby girl.
Hawaii for my brother-in-law and new sister-in-law’s wedding. And Tennessee to see beautiful fall colors
and winter coming in from the mountains.
I’m thankful for my new sister.
I’m thankful for the amazing extended
family on both sides that will show an enormous amount of love to our baby girl.
I’m thankful my husband has only had to
travel one week since the beginning of October.
I’m thankful for a flexible work
schedule for myself to travel with the hubs, or stay at home when this baby
makes me feel bad.
I’m thankful for all the sweet gifts
already given to us for baby girl when I haven’t even had my showers yet.
I’m thankful for a good watchdog, yet a gentle
puppy at the same time.
I’m thankful for the goofiest kitty who
was really funny when my baby belly first started showing.
I’m thankful for best friend dates,
especially our fall double date with our husbands that included pumpkin spice
lattes, a pumpkin patch, and pumpkin carving.
I’m thankful that almost every big item
on our baby registry has been bought for us.
I have a feeling 2015 will be an even
bigger year. Thank you, Jesus, for all
these things! Thank you friends and family for so much love, time, and support this year! Happy New Year, everyone!
I leave you with these random thoughts for 2015...
Love,
Leslie
