Since it is November, I decided to post some of the many things that I am thankful for. To often we go through life focused on the things that we don't have or on the things that go wrong. I love Thanksgiving because it gives us all a time when we can remember all of the many blessings that we have.

I am so thankful for my wonderful husband. He is so patient with me. I am thankful that he is not only my husband, but my best friend. I am thankful that he is a righteous man who honors his Priesthood. I am thankful for my children. I have truly been blessed with wonderful children. I am thankful for the fact that I can trust them to choose the right and to be honest with me. I am thankful to live in this wonderful valley. Cache Valley has to be the most beautiful place on earth. Every morning I look out the window and smile. I am thankful for a testimony of my Savior. I love the gospel of Jesus Christ. It brings me so much peace and happiness. I am thankful for my beautiful home. There is no better feeling than walking in the front door and knowing that I am in a safe, loving place where I can just be myself. I am thankful for the brave men and women who have served our country and made it possible for me to have the freedoms that I have. I am thankful for wonderful friends who always have an ear to listen and a shoulder to cry on. I am thankful for parents who instilled in me good values and let me borrow their testimonies until I found my own. I am thankful for my Heavenly Father. I know that every blessing comes from Him.

I hope you all take a moment to think of everything that you are thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving.
