Thankful Thursday

Lighthouse at South Haven on Lake Michigan! Brrrrr!!!!

I have missed the past few Thursdays, I have so much to be thankful for! I thank all of you for your prayers and support for Mark's eye surgery, he is doing very well, his eyes are getting better every day, he has already seen a major improvement in his double vision and in time it should be gone completely! We have layed pretty low around here for the past few weeks, cabin fever is setting in for sure! Come on Spring!!!!!
I am thankful for....

-Mark, for being such a good patient, I am so glad that you are feeling and looking better! We have all enjoyed getting to spend this extra special time with you. I don't think Myah is going to like it when you go back to work!

-Dayton, for numerous reasons, you have been my right hand man lately and I love you for it. For riding along with me on Monday so I didn't have to go alone, you are so thoughtful!

-Myah, for being such a good girl while Mommy has had her hands full! You have made us laugh so much lately, I love the sweet little girl you are becoming. For saying " I love you soooo much!
