Thankful Thursday

Today I am thankful for family.
 
 
For Lennons healthy, happy smiling face.
For Daniel and I to wake up together happy and loving eachother.
For my mother, my little brother and sister, and brother Tyler.
For Daniel's family, as they are so supportive.
His mother, his father, and brother who are so kind,
and loving and welcome us into their home at any time of the day.
I am so blessed to have such a great support system.
For anything & Everything life throws at me.
 
Today I am thankful for my best friends.
Past friends I have reunited with,
work friends,
and friends I have yet to meet.
I don't know where I would be,
or who I would be without my friends.
My best friend who I fall asleep with every single night,
and wake up to every single morning. He makes me laugh,
we cry, we have fun, we are amazing parents,
and we love eachother. It doesn't get much better than that.
My best friend, McKensey.
She is the rock in my life who holds me together,
has stuck with me through good times, and bad,
and has always held my hand when I needed it most.
 
Today I am thankful for my therapist.
Silly, I know. But she makes me sane.
And a happy Kaila is a happy mommy,
happy girlfriend,
and happy manager.
 
Today I am thankful for the Lord.
For giving me one more day here,
For blessing me with a happy, healthy baby girl.
A happy, healthy man to love.
A place to call home,
and someone to talk to.
Someone to confide in,
someone to believe in,
and someone to love me no matter what.

 
Last night was the annual Soup Supper at my family church in Reese, MI. It is something that my family has gone to every year for a VERY long time! It's always been something that I have looked forward to. As the years have gone by, the table has gotten smaller, and smaller as family has passed away... yet, it has grown with the little ones that have been born into the world.
 
Last night was the first time Lennon has come to the Soup Supper, and it was wonderful! We didn't stay long, but the time we did spend there was very meaninful. Especially since I got to see my Great Grandmother. Every time I get to see her I am overjoyed, she is the peice of the puzzle that holds this entire family together.
 
See, my mom is the first grandchild, I am the first great-grandchild, and now Lennon is the first great-great-grandchild. Cool, huh? I think so!
 
 Today I am thankful for my Great Grandmother.
She is a wonderful, kind hearted woman who always has a smile on her face.
She lights up when you hug her, she squeezes you so tight,
and she even cracks jokes to make fun of you and make you laugh.
She's wonderful.
I am so thankful that she has been blessed with another day with us.
