The object is to name five things you are thankful for. Now we all have many people and things we are thankful for, but lets narrow it down to five.
1 - My family in Utah. Mom, Dad, Jessica, Carolyn, Andrew, Matt, Paul, Joel, and Jared. They were all there for me when life got rough and are still there for me today with new additions Tucker, Dan, Parker, Korbin and Caden.
2 - My Family in Seattle. Juan Carlos, Shannon, Nathan, Gilberto, Teresa, Corey, and my birth mom. They have been there for me since I have been back to Seattle. Though my mother was not alway there she has done her best to turn her life around.
3 - Diane and Naivasha. Diane was my middle school teacher and Naivasha is her daughter (Though I think of her as a little sister). Diane saw I needed help when I was young and helped me to get with my new family in Utah. She took me in until the decision was final and in the midst of winter drove me to Utah.
4 - Daniela. When we first me we hated each other. God knew that we would work through it. She has been there for me through rough times since we met. She is alway there to talk and help when I need it.
5 - Life. I certainly took it for granted before my sister died last year. I am thankful I can talk, walk, hear, see, have all my limbs, and no serious illness (life threatening).

Amen!
I tell everyone I became the Mom of 8 on my 40th birthday. (That's the day Angel joined our family.)
According to Jared, you already won the race for having the first grand-daughter. He is really looking forward to meeting his niece and nephew someday (J.C.'s kids in Mexico.) Being so close to his age, I would imagine they'll be like cousins to him.
How are things coming with the trip to Mexico? We'll miss you guys this Christmas!
Love, Mom
