Thankful Thursdays

I can't believe Thursday has come around again so soon! It seems like this week is flying by - which can be a good thing AND a bad thing, depending.


Seeing as it's Valentine's Day week, most of us are focused on loved ones. Here's what I'm thankful for this week:

1. My loving Husband of almost three years - we have been together four years this past October and will have been married three years in April. It's been an adventure and getting crazier by the minute, but I love him to pieces. He's my best friend, love of my life, my soulmate.
   
2. My mom. She's the best mom a girl could ever have and I miss her terribly now that we're not in the same city. I hope someday we can change that. A few days ago we started talking about a trip to Europe while Husband does his study abroad trip and I am.so.excited I just can't stand it! I don't know if I can wait a year!


3. My dad. Pretty much ditto for my mom. He retired when I was just starting middle school and has been home raising us ever since, while mom worked for a big corporation. I thought it was weird at first but after a while I couldn't imagine not having him home every day, cooking dinner and helping me with my lines. It made me so happy to have him walk me down the aisle because I know it meant SO much to him, me being his only little girl, his duckie.


4. My brother. He's almost five years younger than me so we have only recently started to really talk to each other. The kid's gonna turn out alright, methinks. I can't wait to see where he lands after college and what world problem he'll solve before he's 30. He's that kind of guy.

Valentine's Day shouldn't just about those of us in couples - but giving thanks for ALL the loved ones in our lives. Have you told someone you loved them today?
