This past year has been very eventful for our little family. More than anything else I've learned from my husband during the past 16 months of marriage is gratitude. I'm pretty sure I have the most grateful husband ever, and I have grown so much from his example of looking for blessings instead of focusing on trials.
I am grateful that David got into medical school at OU. This place could not be more perfect for us. I'm so grateful to be pregnant and to have a little girl coming in the next couple of weeks. So far, having this little baby has brought me closer to David and made me fall even more in love with him. I'm grateful to live close to both our parents and to see them every few weeks. I'm grateful for a little sister who is getting married in the temple next month. I CANNOT WAIT. I'm grateful for all the wonderful people we've met since coming to Oklahoma who have truly made this place feel more like home than anywhere else. And mostly, I am grateful for a loving Heavenly Father and Savior who continually guide our little family through life. I am confident that my Heavenly Father knows me specifically and constantly cares about my needs and desires.
Here's to a wonderful Thanksgiving and so much to be grateful for.
