We DeSimone's: Gratitude breeds Gratitude

Isn't that so true? Like the hymn says, count your many blessings, and ...I don't remember the words but basically count your blessings and then you'll really start seeing how blessed you are. This month on Facebook a lot of my friends were naming a new thing each day that they were thankful for and that really inspired me. If I could remember to be thankful for even the tiniest thing that's good in my life I could be able to find the true joy that exists in it. I'm thankful for sooo many things. Most of all I'm thankful for good friends and family. My Heavenly Father sent me to goodly parents and incredible brothers and sisters. Even more he sent me a good husband and a truly incredible kid. I mean, seriously she BLOWS ME AWAY! What a blessing that I'm able to see her as a blessing and not a burden. I can't imagine what it would be like to feel negatively about this precious soul that was sent to me, that was entrusted to me by our Father in Heaven. What an honor. Well anywho, we got to spend thanksgiving with Tylers family (mine too a little) and it was lots of fun. I seriously love my little brothers in law. Cute boys I have to say . I am so excited for them to get married and for us to all be able to hang out together! We also were able to celebrate 4 years of marriage on Thanksgiving day. It certainly hasn't been bliss, or without trial, but it has been a blessing and has helped both of us to grow. Lastly, I just went and got Arleigh's photos taken with Santa (me dressed in a santa costume). I hope you like them, and enjoy my beautiful daughter as much as I do, but if you don't that's okay, cause I will.
