November 2013

As we celebrated Thanksgiving just a few days ago, we thought that a list of everything we’re thankful for would be an appropriate November entry.  So here goes, we have quite a list since we have a lot to be thankful for.

• Our relationship with Jesus Christ and the hope that it brings.
• Fantastic and God-centered family.
• Healthy kids (for the most part)
• 2 adorable foster daughters
