Thankful Thursday

It's been a while

since I've written

a Thankful Thursday post.

It's not that I don't have anything

to write about;

in fact, it's the exact opposite -

I am thankful for so many things right now

that sometimes I'm afraid I'd become repetitive

or not even know how to put

my thankfulness into words.

But, here I am -

writing a Thankful Thursday post.

It's about time! :)

Today, I am thankful

that it's the last day of September;

that October begins tomorrow,

and that fall is here -- for real!

It hasn't felt very "fall-ish"

here in South Carolina,

and sometimes the constant

warm weather, and the refusal

of the trees to change color

makes me long for Michigan.

But, I am thankful -

thankful for the sunshine,

thankful for the cool breeze

that has made its appearance lately,

thankful for the loveliness

of autumn mornings and evenings.

I am thankful

that today, I'm 22 weeks along,

and still feeling great.

I am so, so thankful

for my tiny son, my Colin,

and I am thankful

for my amazing, incredible husband

who has been great throughout

this pregnancy,

and who continues to be awesome.

He never ceases to amaze me.

Thank you, God, for all of the blessings

that constantly surround me every day!
