Blessings

     Well, it is sunday evening and as i sit here and think about the things that have happened this weekend and the week a head i am grateful for the blessings that  i have in my life. My family and my loving husband jerry and for all the support that he gives me in the things that i am doing in my life. Going to school and getting the education that i need to get a good paying job so that we can live day to day. My family is awesome, no matter what i do in my life they support me, now they might not always approve of the things that i do but i know that they support me.
      There are somethings that are going to be changing in my family and people are being added to our family this week!! My sister is going to be having a baby this coming tuesday and i am grateful for the chance that i have to go up and see   her and the new baby and visit my family that is up there. As i think about that i can's help but think about what i am leaving behind for a few days. Jerry is not able to go up with me due to the fact that he has some things that he has to do here at home. I do hate when i leave him. i would love for him to come with me but the fact is he is not and i will miss him while i am gone. Another thing that is changing is my parents are moving. They are moving again... they moved into this house that they are in just about a year ago and now they are moving again so that they can save money while my stepdad goes to school to finish getting his degree. Yes i am very proud of him for do that so that he can advance into management if he wants to.
       On Saturday my mom and i held a yard sale for all the stuff that we didn't want and to my surprise we got rid of most of it and we did pretty good making the money that we needed to. it was alot of fun and enjoyed each others company. its nice to be able to help out family when they need it and to see them often. 
   Family is so important to me and jerry. When i think about Jerry's side of the family i am saddened by the way that they are not as close to him they don't include him in any of the family things that go on, i can't remember the last time that we were invited over for a birthday party, for christmas or anything for that matter and for this i am grateful that we meet each other and got married and i was able to show him what family is all about.. i am grateful that he has grandparents that care enough to want to know what's going on in his life and to be there for the important events in his life. i want his family to be involved in our lives and i guess that i can want all i want but they have to want it as well and maybe they just don't want that as much as i do and sometimes jerry does... i feel like he is hurting inside because he sees the bond that my mom and i have with each other and he wants that with his mom. i see my mom alot and he does not get to see his that often and that is mostly her choice. But as for all things that happen in life this to is something that we are working on and maybe in the future it will be like we want it to be.
    As this week starts i think about the things that have to be done and the blessing that i have received and will receive for living my life the way that i should... We all should try to live our lives the way that we are suppose to be living them... There are so many blessing that i could talk about and hi could go  on and on for pages about blessing but i would like you all to think about the blessings that you have had and be grateful for the things that you have in your life and just the lord each and every day for those things.
     As i close this post and start thinking about my next one i am grateful for my family and big blessing that they are to me in my life. And for my Husband and how he has changed my life for the best.
