MAKING, NOT BREAKING

Greetings, I hope you all have the realization that today is a wonderful and glorious day! We are alive and well! How great is that!

I realized that I have neglected to list each day what I am thankful for....
Well, everyday I am grateful to be alive, to have a job, to have a roof over my head and a car, wonderful family and friends, live in a free country...and the list goes on.

But today I specifically thankful that I had the energy and opportunity to get lots of things done that I needed to do this weekend. I am thankful, that so far, it looks like hurricane Ike will not directly hit us, and I am thankful for another beautiful day that has begun, with a chance for a new start to make improvements and make an impact in this world!

I have to say Happy Birthday to my sister Andrea!! I love you sis and hope you have a great day...even though you are at work.

I heard a great quote from our pastor in church today;
"The thing that breaks you, will ultimated make you!"
There is so much truth in this, and I can testify to it personally several times over....just like the saying "that what does not kill us makes us stronger". The trials we go through and the way we handle them and come out of them have a great deal to do with making us who we are and what we are made of!

Have a wonderful day!
PS: I did post on Friday, but it was very late at night, in case you didn't see it and thought there wasn't one....its not a message, but a great video of Kaitlyn...again, can't help sharing her with others, she's just too cute!!
