Fall to your knees

Happy Fall everyone! With Fall comes Thanksgiving. I think with the holiday madness it's hard to sit down and give thanks. I realized how important this was today. I came across my dear friend Casey's facebook page today and my heart and mind were filled with all sorts of feelings. Casey passed away from cancer about 7 months ago. She left behind a daughter, boyfriend and extended family. I thought immediately how lucky I am to have known her. The most amazing thing is when she was taken, God put Seth in my life and for that I cannot be more thankful.

Today as I drove home from work I saw the leaves falling and the temperature was just right. I was once again thankful. I had just met the nicest people and I was telling my Mom all the excitement that had happened from today. I clicked over to talk to Seth who had called to tell me he had landed at his destination. He was telling me how difficult his day had been, but I smiled so big when he told me that he wasn't discouraged, he was just going to keep rolling because everything that had happened was out of his control. Wow.. I am so thankful to have such an amazing and positive person in my life.

I literally was on cloud nine. I sat down at home and turned on the tv to Bravo.. I rarely change from this channel.. I'm very thankful for Real Housewives. About an hour later I got a call from a dear friend in tears telling me that her sweet boyfriend had cancer. It took all I had to hold back my own tears. My heart ached for both of them. I wanted to support her through this time because I know how great of a girlfriend she is and how much they love each other. I was so thankful to have a friend call on me. So please say a prayer for my sweet friends as they go through this together. I think these things that happen in our lives are God's way of telling us to be humble and to be thankful for everything he has given us.. I know I felt that today and I'M SO THANKFUL!
