Thankful

When dealing with infertility, it is easy to focus on what I don't have and hard to be thankful for what I do have. But what I do have is everything I need. And for thanksgiving, here is a list of a few things I am thankful for!

  • An amazing husband. I thank God for him everyday, because he really is perfect for me. He is kind, gentle, loving, caring, considerate and supportive. I know I am not always easy to live with, but he loves me unconditionally and always forgives my mistakes. I would not trade him for anything.
  • A loving and caring family. I don't know where I would be without their love and support!
  • All our friends! They are there to listen to our problems, they are praying for us, and they help us build decks last minute when we need it!
  • My animals. They are my joy! I love being with them, doing activities like agility, running and riding with them.
  • My job. I am glad I can work with animals all day long and get paid for it.
  • It may not be fancy, but I am thankful for a home to live in that keeps me warm and clean! Even though I don't like our place, I am still thankful to have something.
  • I am thankful for my health. Yes I do have PCOS that makes it difficult to conceive, but other than that I am pretty healthy. I am thankful for two legs so I can run, and a heart that can allow me to do it!
  • I am thankful that we are able to pay our bills. There may not be a tonne left over after than, but we have enough to live on.
And most of all, I am thankful for a God that loves us so much that He sent his Son to die for our sins. It is because of Jesus that we are set free, so what more do we need?

Praying for you today! Praying that the doctor has wisdom (and no tums), and that you (and Eric) feel at peace about what he tells you.
