While it is easy to think about all the things that are not going well, I am taking this time to be thankful for all the blessings that have come from this set back in life.
Time with Kate, Danielle and Kyleigh - I am so blessed to be a part of the first few weeks of Kate’s life and see her grow and change daily. Danielle and I are able to laugh, talk and just visit. Spending this time with my family and having my mom here to help us get through this time is something that I am so thankful for.
I am so thankful for a great team that I work with, and the culture that we have built. To be able to deal with a health issue and watch the team continue without a hitch is a very cool feeling. While I miss not being at work there, is a comfort to know the team is still executing every day.
I am thankful for the new outlook I have on life. I am trying really hard to not take anything for granted. Life is so short and heath is so important, and for that I want to be thankful for every day.
I am so grateful for the friends and support system we have. It has been so amazing how people have really helped us out in so many areas: from making meals, sending flowers and cards, to shoveling the sidewalk. Our friends have made this experience so much easier!
I am blessed that we have an awesome church and God’s help as we deal with each new day! Our church family has been so amazing and we are lucky to be part of such a great Christian community.
