I’m participating in “30 Days of Thankfulness” on facebook this month. Every day I am posting something I am thankful for in my status.

There is so much to be thankful for.

On Fridays, I will post what I wrote on facebook here.

Day 1: I am thankful for God's faithfulness from generation to generation.

Day 2: I'm thankful for Dave, who woke up at 5am when he heard me trying to quickly make a bottle and came in there and said, "I forgot to make bottles last night!! Sorry!!" and then proceeded to make about a dozen bottles before he went back to bed. He is such a supportive husband and an incredible daddy to our daughters. I thank God for bringing him into my life (via my brother!) almost 6 years ago. And yes, he makes all Sweet Pea’s bottles for the next day every night before he goes to bed. He is always trying to find small ways to make my days a little bit easier. :)

Day 3: I am thankful for my little girl, Little Bug. She is more than I ever imagined a daughter could be. I am thankful God chose her to be my daughter!!

Day 4: I am thankful for my baby girl, Sweet Pea. Even though she came sooner than we had planned, God, once again, had a perfect plan in place. Sweet Pea’s adoption process taught me that GOD IS IN CONTROL of everything and His plan prevails no matter what I do or don't do. I am thankful God saw fit to add Sweet Pea to our family. Three years ago, I never dreamed I'd be the mother of two little girls within the span of just 26 months. But that was GOD'S PLAN and His plan prevailed and I am so very thankful for this sweet baby girl who smiles through her tummy troubles on a daily basis.
