i am so thankful.

I have been thinking lately about how blessed we are. People have been so generous and good to our family. Heavenly Father has taken care of us in many ways since we have been married. I was looking around our house, and i realized that almost everything that we own has been given to us. Our couch, china cabinet, fish tank, kitchen table, our bed, Liam's bed, our dressers, toys, blankets, our dishes, our TV, and much much more. What would we have or do if all of our family and friends would not be so receptive to the spirit.

My Son. He is so cute and just wont stop growing and learning. He makes me laugh, and he makes me worry about him. He takes care of me in ways that only he can. He is my first Baby. The first one to call me mommy. I love him more than i can explain. I am so blessed to have him. I love when he is acting silly and trying to impress me. He is so cuddly and lets me know when he needs my love. He is very independent like me. He eats like a teenager most of the time. He helps me think good of the future. I love to remember that he is my future.

I am also blessed to have such a caring and hard working husband. My handy man. He is such a good father . He has the energy to come home at the end of a long day and play and run around with Liam. He takes all my whining about being pregnant, and even tries to help me see the hilarity in some of the things that i do. He gives me my space when i need it. He is my someone who i can joke around with, ensured that he will joke with me right back! He is that guy that i can be myself around, whether im crabby or super excited and annoy the heck out of him. He is my eternal companion, here with me even after i go crazy, even though he says i already have.

Honestly, I am so thankful for everything in my life. I have 25 days left till my due date. Then i will have another little boy to bring me so much happiness and realize how blessed i am. I am so thankful for all my trials that make me stronger, and for the gospel to help me realize that they are just a moment in my life. A speck of dust in time. I have been trying really hard lately to see the positive things in life and to get out there and try and make a difference. I want to share my happiness with everyone. But im not willing to give up my family and friends. I will let people know about my other bringer of life...My church. I belong to the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Honestly this church helped me change my life, from what could have ended it. I know that there is someone out there helping me and controlling my destiny. I know that i have a Heavenly Father and that i will Live with him again. I know that this is the true church upon the earth and I know that he loves us all. I am a child of God.I know that it is my job to tell people about this. Please ask me about my beliefs if you know me. If you don't, please please,please, go to LDS.org and look around, or look up your local LDS church and ask to talk to the missionaries. Even if you just have a question I promise that you will be helped and all your questions will be answered.
Thats it for now. Athena.
