In the spirit of Thanksgiving the 7 things I am grateful for:

My family ~ I would not be a fraction of what I am today were it not for them. I am glad that although we are not perfect we are honest and supportive of one another.
God answers prayers ~ I contended in prayer this summer for a handful of great female friends from whom I could lean on, learn from, and (hopefully) pour into. I am so thankful God brought me Leticia, Jess, Tasha, Nicole and Steph.
I am appreciative of my God-given gifts ~ it took me awhile to get to this point of appreciation but with a lot of prayer, study and a bit of coaching from Joyce Meyer I can, truly, say that I walk in my gifts and do not covet another’s.
That I have made progress in my personal life over the past six months with the epitome of clarification coming from time this fall. I am learning to accept my personal life for what it is while (slowly) letting go of what I thought was going to be the future and faithfully praying God will meet my heart’s desire.
Generations ~ after fixing all of my grandmother’s Thanksgiving recipes I am grateful she taught us how to cook; the importance of tradition; and the love of family. (P.S. Mom and Stac helped a lot – don’t want to take credit for much).
Hobby Lobby ~ and their 50% off sale the day before Thanksgiving. Watch out – Outlaw, Ink is in full-force!
I hate pumpkin pie! So … I am grateful for all the other treats.
