I am grateful for my family

I am grateful for my family: my parents and siblings, as well as my parents and siblings in-law. Through the past year and a half of our marriage, we've experienced many trials that were always lessened through the kindness and support of our family. Through car troubles, health concerns and hospital stays, our family has always been willing to help us. Whether by driving for hours to rescue us, visiting in the hospital, bringing much needed food, or simply comforting by giving advice and being there to talk to, our family is a great blessing to us. I love my family.

I am thankful....

I'm thankful for modern technology. Because I have a car, I can get to twice as many places, because I have a computer I can get three times as much done in a day, and because there are large factories to produce high volumes of products, I can enjoy all the chocolate I want. I love living in a day of modern technology.
