In Everything...Give Thanks!!

Okay...so I missed a few days of my own tag! Lame :) But to finish it up, I am thankful for life! You know, I never fully understood how people could say that they are thankful for everything, including their trials and hardships. I think I'm begining to understand it...I truely am grateful for everything in my life! If I didn't have trials, and didn't have hard things to face in life, I would not be the person I am today, and would not have the testimonyof my Savior like I do! I will be forever grateful to have a greater understanding of the atonement of Jesus Christ and the power that it holds for each of us! Not only for those times that we need to be forgiven, but for our times of heartache and pain as well. I am thankful for the knowledge that I have to know that, and to have the freedom in this world to be able to live according to that knowledge! We are so blessed to have so many freedoms in this country! I am thankful for all of the other single moms (or who were at one point) for all of their encouraging words and advice! (especially Kelly...you're amazing and I am forever indebted to you!) I am thankful for my three wonderful, energetic kids!! Life would be so empty without them! They are my LIFE!!!! I am thankful for parents and siblings who are always there for me, and who are sooooooo supportive of everything I do! I have the BEST family EVER!!! I am just thankful for my life...I really have a great life!!
