Happy Thanksgiving

I saw this on a blog as I was searching for something this afternoon and I just had to steal the idea. The person posted one thing they are thankful for each day up until Thanksgiving. So since I am 10 days behind I am going to post 10 things I am thankful for. I will update this post for the remainder of the month, up until thanksgiving, so if you are interested, please continue to check it out!!
Day 1:
I am thankful for my husband because I know that even when we get into tight spots we will also be able to work it out. He is thoughtful, caring, and hardworking and I appreciate all he has done for our family. I am thankful that he is always looking for more ways to spend more time with our family. I am also thankful that he enjoys the traditions and costumes of our religion and culture as much as I do.

Day 2:
I am thankful for my daughter Liliana. I am thankful that the Lord blessed us with a beautiful daughter. I am thankful that she knows how to continually make me smile and appreciate the little things in life. I am grateful that she enjoys to cuddle and is a good eater.
