Today we celebrated all of the things we are thankful for. Obviously are thankful for our little man Finnigin; for it was exactly one year ago today we met Finn for the very first time.
I always have so much to be thankful for but this year I am mostly thankful to God for giving me a loving husband and a healthily baby. There are so many trials Chase and I overcame this year (I hope we never have to relive them); job layoffs for us both, surgery, broken bones, not to mention the ups and downs of the day to day. I've just felt like there has been a constant cloud of spiritual warfare that's followed me around driving me nuts. It wasn't until I got home from Sierra Leone that I feel the fog has cleared and God has given me direction, which I've been begging for since June. Hooray for new beginnings and God's faithfulness. And I am thankful for the seasons of the undefined; it's not always about where you're going, but who you become along the way.
My amazing parents (who I know will hate me for posting this picture that I made them take).
Happy Birthday Finnigin! Here he is eating his very own pumpkin pie.
Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Birthday Finn!
Happy Birthday Finn! And I have to say I love that picture of your folks. There are a number of things I miss about working at NSB and your Dad is one of them.
