Thankful Thursday

It's time for Thankful Thursday and my heart is just overflowing with thankfulness. We have waited approximately 9 months and now this news is official. It wasn't how we expected or what we had planned of how we thought it would happen. God has taught us so much through this process and I'm thankful for that too. I am going to write it all down sometime because there are so many details about the whole thing that are just amazing.

We found out last Tuesday my husband was promoted to a new position. He called and told me and then we had to keep the secret until it was official! What a hard secret to have! They made it official today so it was announced. We'll be moving sometime in late October.

Today I'm thankful for...

~ my husband and his job and how he's a man of integrity and such a hard worker to provide for our family and so much more! He's such a blessing!

~ my sweet boy being so obedient. I've noticed lately how he's been doing things I ask with a good attitude and without complaining and grumbling. This is something we've been working on and it makes me smile.

~ great books to listen to while I drive. I'm listening to Take Four by Karen Kingsbury right now.

~ smelling a roast cooking in the crock pot for supper.

~ ALL the lessons God has taught me the past 9 months about patience!

Have a day of blessings!
