I really can’t believe that its been 3 years since the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. I was pregnant with Eden at the time and I remember being so terrified that the terrorists would come and attack Grand Junction and I’d never be able to meet my baby.

I am so thankful that I got to meet Eden. She is the funniest, cutest, sometimes grumpiest, kid.

Not a moment passes that she isn’t singing a song or talking to Bunny (aka George). She is so smart and imaginative; so much so that I can mostly ignore the fact that she can throw a fit like no other kid I have seen in my entire life. It’s times like now (when she’s sleeping and not throwing a fit) that I am so thankful for her.

And if I never met Eden, I would never have met Honor either.

Honor has the prettiest eyes in the whole world. He can make me forget why I’m telling him “NO” for the 50th time with those eyes. And if it doesn’t make me forget, the way he laughs at me while I scold him will. He is turning into such a great little boy. I can tell by the way he studies things that he’s going to be scary-smart like his dad. He is going to give me a run for my money, but I’d have it no other way.

All this is made possible by the best man in the world. I am so thankful that I was lucky enough to make such a good choice in a husband. I love the life we have together. I love that even after 5 years of marriage, that he’s still my first choice of anyone to be with. He’s my favorite.

I just wanted to take today to remember all the good things in my life, to be thankful for what God has given me. Please feel free to comment about what you are thankful for.
