Five on Friday!

THE GOOD LIFE BLOG

    Okay, so I started this 5 on friday thingamabob and I've got to commit to it for the pure sake of my sanity. I cannot start something and not finish it, so here it goes. Five things on my mind today. It's hard to choose just five. My brain has been going a million miles an hour and this weekend I have big intentions. Groceries, finish Christmas shopping, finish the decorations, wrap gifts, laundry, 3 month photos and 3 month blog update. Whew! So with all this hype I've devoted to Christmas I thought I'd tune in and focus on Thanksgiving.

    Thankfulness

one.
Addelyn. I'm so unconditionally thankful for this little miracle God has blessed us with. She truly is a piece of heaven, God has already taught me so much through this little one. My heart has grown so much as I've learned a new kind of love. Motherhood is one of the most precious gifts from God.

two.
Hubby. I don't want to over use the word blessed but it's so hard not to! Because I do feel incredibly blessed to have such an amazing man in my life who loves so wholeheartedly. Thanks be to God.

three.
My mother. I'm so happy to have had the time we did share together, growing spiritually. Bonding over bible studies made our connection so much deeper and significant.

four.
My in-laws. Every single one of them. After my mom's passing family took on a new meaning for me. God knew how much I would need a fun, loving, big family. My mother-in-law and I have such a close mother and daughter relationship and though she has not replaced my mother, our relationship has filled that empty gut-renching of a hole in my heart.

five.
Okay this may sound cliche but I am so thankful for our home. Home has never felt so much like home until Jimmy and I re-did our house. It's quite a cozy retreat and I'm humbled to be able to have such nice unique things that make our home special to us. Being a new mommy, you sure do spend a lot of your time at home!

andddd... A Birthday shout out to Nana!
Happy Birthday Nana!
