I'm so thankful for a lot of things!

Bear with me here...I just feel the need to say some things!

Here I am feeling all fat & hairy and my DH still loves me just the way I am. He knows how to make me feel feminine and good about myself even on my worst days. I love him with all my heart and soul--he really is the man of my dreams.

When I feel down about myself I just have to let Tom know and he's always there to pick me up. In fact, most times he knows I'm down before I do! (LOL!!) He's a wonderful husband, father and man, and he's my best friend. I've been with him for nearly 17 years and it just gets better each day.

We have a beautiful daughter who I love more than words can say. She's a miracle girl through & through. I couldn't ask for a sweeter, kinder, and more precious child!

But in a year and a half or so we'll have another little sweetie joining our family. We'll be adopting from China and the thought of it is just more wonderful than I ever dreamed. I look forward to sharing our family's love with another child that has been wished for and prayed for for years.

I also have to add that I am so thankful for the friends I have made here at SC. To think I have friends all the way around the world that I may never even meet in person, well, that's just amazing to me! And some of you know more personal stuff about me than my 'real life' friends!

I love chatting with my cysta' friends. You girls are just too cool!

I just felt like putting into words how happy I am today. I love my family and my friends and things are really looking good around here. Now if I can just find the new home we are looking for I'll really be all set!

Thanks for letting me share!

That was such a sweet post!! You're lucky to have a man such as Tom...aren't they great?? It is kinda funny when their bein goofy and you can't figure out what the heck their problem is and then they tell you their cheerin you up and you didn't even know you were down! lol I hear ya on that one cysta'!!

I'm so glad that I have a friend as compassionate, sweet, lovely, gifted, smart, informative, creative, sincere, and wonderful as you. You light up my day more then you know! You deserve these wonderful things you have (and that are about to become) because of how much you give to others! I'm so glad God has chosen you to have such gifts that he has presented you with!
