Blessed & Thankful

My heart is full as I sit here and think of everything that I am grateful for. I feel overly blessed, and I wonder why I have been so blessed and then it becomes overwhelming because I realize that I am forever indebted to my Heavenly Father and Savior.

I am so grateful for this gospel. There is so much peace that comes with having this wonderful gospel and knowledge of my Savior and the plan. I am so thankful for his sacrifice and the blessings that are showered over my sweet family.

I am so thankful for my sweet eternal companion. Tyler is so humble, and softhearted. He is a honorable man who works hard, honors his priesthood and is loyal....those characteristics are vital for a good marriage. I am so grateful for our relationship. I feel like our hearts were made for each other. I am so grateful for his support and love. I am so grateful for the tears that come from laughing so hard and the silence and arms that embrace me when I breakdown.

I am so thankful for my boys, to say they are my world would be an understatement. I had no idea that boys could create stomach ulcers and an oversized heart. They have personalities that are on fire, and hearts that are made of cotton. I know that Heavenly Father knew that these boys would teach me more in a few short years, then anything else I had learned thus far. Patience, unconditional love and true happiness. I am grateful that they are strong and healthy.

I am so thankful for my family. I do not know what I would do with out my outstanding parents. They have not only set an example with the gospel, but with work ethic. I am so grateful for their continuous love and support. I am so grateful for sisters. I am so grateful for friends. I am surrounded by rocks.

I am so thankful for Trials. If you weren't ever pushed to the ground, you would never learn to stand up. I am grateful for the little bumps and the fall outs. I know we are all given different tests, and sometimes I wonder why others are tested more, but I am grateful for my trials. I am so grateful that after a trial you get to look back and know that you are stronger and better than before. & there are even some that after time you don't even consider it a trial anymore.
