-30 days of thanks

November is a time for giving thanks, a time for reminding ourselves thoat in the middle of all this crazy holiday scrambling, we all have things to be thankful for!


So, I'll begin and update this post as each new day comes:


Day 1- I'm thankful for a warm home to come back to every day, there are others not so lucky.
Day 2- I'm thankful for my father. The first man I ever loved and the one man I know will always be there for me! I am a daddy's girl and I love my daddy more than anything.
Day 3- I'm thankful for my mom! Her and I have always had a combative relationship, but as I get older I realize we're more alike than I'd like to admit. Love you momma!
Day 4- I'm thankful for my brothers. They're silly,crazy, and stupid. But they're mine, and I love them.
Day 5- I'm thankful for my crazy, wonderful, super awesome boyfriend. He's the love of my life and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him!
Day 6- I'm thankful for my right to vote! There is nothing better than exercising my right as an American that allows me to remain free!
Day 7- I'm thankful for my job and the ability to work. I may dislike the long hours, but it's worth it in the end.
Day 8- I'm thankful for my grandparents. After recent events, I'm realizing more and more how lucky I am to have my grandparents and my great grandma by my side. They're always there for me and for that, I am thankful.
Day 9- I'm thankful for my cousins. Being one of two girls in the family(at least out of the cousins) has always been challenging, but the boys have always made it clear that they're always on our side. This knowledge is reassuring and comforting. I love you all. 
Day 10- As always, I am thankful to be a child of The Lord. For those who know me, I'm very internalized about my faith, but it's there and it's stronger than ever. I put ALL my trust in the hands of The Lord about eight months ago now and I have never been happier. Always there. Always faithful.
Day 11- I'm thankful for my pups. While other girls my age are married, having kids, or both, I'm content to have my puppies as my babies. I love them and their unrelenting love and adoration. 
Day 12- I'm thankful for my best friends. More and more I'm realizing just how lucky I am to have found my best friends at such a young age. Many people go their whole lives without knowing the kind of friendship I found at age 6. 
Day 13- I'm thankful for coffee. Days that test my patience can always be made better with a cup of holiday cheer! 
Day 14- I'm thankful for the lasting friendship and support I've found through work. I couldn't ask for a more supporting, loving group of people to be around every day. 
Day 15- I'm thankful for the opportunity to continue my education in a place that best suits me. I'm blessed by the chance to attend a university that is so focused on the students.
Day 16- I'm thankful for music! So many individuals will never know the pure joy playing, listening, and writing music can send throughout your being. I encourage everyone to take the time to immerse themselves in this wonderful art.
Day 17- I'm thankful for my ability to write. I would not be the person I am without this outlet and I'm thankful God blessed me with the ability to portray my feelings through words. 
Day 18- I'm thankful f
