Happy Thanksgiving Friends! I hope you all are having a wonderful week. This past weekend we were able to have a pre Thanksgiving dinner with some friends that we went to school with. I believe this is the 5th year, maybe. I look forward to it every year. I moved around every couple of years as a kid and did not do a great job of keeping in touch with my friends, so the fact that I am still close with the same friends after so many years is such a comforting feeling. Going through this has only made me work harder at keeping the friendships that God has given me.
Everything that we do now during the holidays or just everyday in general makes me so excited for Mick. I look forward to traditions that we have started and will start. I am always so interested in other families tradition and what brings others together. I like this tradition and hope it stays.
Sometimes I have to catch myself thinking of the future and looking forward to Mick running around with all the other kids that have joined the families. I have to stop and enjoy the moment that we are in. I dont want to find myself looking back and wishing I had stopped to breathe, stopped to take in what God had put infront of me at the moment. Because everyone was right when they said that time goes by faster once you have babies. I mean seriously when did Mick become a teenager?
We had a new guest this year. Our friend Kirsten did an amazing job of decorating the table for Friendsgiving. Some how a tiny snail jumped on one of the little pumpkins and hung out with us. I learned something new that night. You may be asking yourself what that little black spot is behind the snail. It is true what they say, everybody poops. I just could not get over it.
Thank you Jesus for grace, thank you friends for a wonderful evening and thank you tiny snail for blowing my mind.
