Thankful Thursday

I now realize that yesterday was Thursday and for some reason I sat down to do a "Thankful" post and thought it was Wednesday...so it comes a day late again this week! Please forgive me...

What I am thankful for this week is love. There are many different types of love a person gets to experience throughout their life and without love, life wouldn't be much! I have been surrounded by love for most of my life, and believe I have had the chance to go through many different kinds of love.

Each love God has used to mold me into the person I am today, and while certain people think that person isn't one worthy of much, there are other people that disagree. I believe, and maybe I am wrong, for some reason God has given us several tests in our 7 years of marriage and without the love from my parents, my children, my friends, and my husband it would have been difficult to carry on. I do not know how many people read this blog any more, and I do not know of that number how many are IRL (in real life) and how many are bloggies...but if you know us IRL you understand a tip of the iceburg of the different things we have gone through. If you know me in blogland you many understand a different side of me, the PCOS & babylost side.

I read many blogs, and try to keep up with friends and family through face.book...but how is one to express their love for people through text. Sure love is something we can type, but how to you wrap your arms around someone to back up your words. So I guess my thankful Thursday post for this week is going to be a challenge...to myself, and to any of you that are sticking with me through my blog break...make it a point over the next week to back up your words with your actions. We are living in a stressed time with not knowing where the economy is taking us and wouldn't you just love someone to back up their words with actions? I know I would...if you truly love someone; a parent, a child, a friend, a spouse, a fellow believer: please show them some way this week...without words! Bake a cake, give a hug, rake a yard, take someone out for lunch...just do something to SHOW that you love!

♥Thank you Mom & Dad for loving me even through the teenage years!
♥Thank you God for NEVER giving up on me!
♥Thank you Handsome for loving me even through my miscarriages when I wasn't a lovely person!
♥Thank you Princess & Boo for loving me when I am not the most patient Mommy sometimes...
♥Thank you to our REAL friends (I think of 4 people, 2 couples right off the bat) for standing with us and being there!
♥I have a list that could go on and on, but for the sake of the little Pumpkins I must go do my job!
