A day to be thankful & proud! 9/11

Preston's first day of school... What a success!





I have so many things to be thankful for! I am finally 4 months pregnant, I have a healthy son, a loving caring husband who stays up with me all night while I am sick. I warm place to lay my sons head at night and mine when I take enough phenogran and food on the table. I am free to choose my own political views, free to choose my own religious beliefs and free to be a powerful, strong, outspoken women. I love to be an American woman. I am thankful for the public school system and its safety here in Utah county. I am thankful for my animals who love me when I don't shower for days, don't walk them for days and throw up when I do try and walk them.
I am thankful for my parents, my brothers and sister and my nieces and nephew. I have the best family in all the land. I have never known more accepting, loving, and forgiving people. I have big shoes to fill in my older siblings.
I am thankful my parents taught me the things that truly matter in life... I always wondered why my mom always wore old clothes and we were always dressed to the hilt. Now I know! Preston will alway come before me. He will always be better dressed and better looking than me. Thanks mom!

I am on my way to get my weekly IV and I am also thankful for that. It is a ticket to 3 days of comfort.
Today is a day to be proud to be an American! Today is a day we should all be glad our authorities chose to go overseas to fight a battle or it would have been fought on our own soil.
God Bless America and God bless my little family.

Hey Linds,

Your mom gave me your blog the other night on Mikes birthday. Anyways, I agree with you- we are so fortunate to be Americans!
