Being grateful...

Amidst all our trials I have found so many things to be grateful for...

• We have each other, what could be greater than that?
• We have a very wiggly child on the way.
• We have our Heavenly Father who loves us unconditionally.
  
• We have our brother Jesus Christ who died for us.
• We have been blessed with the gift of the Holy Ghost to lead and guide us.
  
• We have a roof over our head.
• We have food on the table.
• We have clean clothes to wear (as long as I remember to do laundry) :D
• We have wonderful families
• We have great midwives who have guided and taken care of us through this pregnancy.
• We have vitamins to give us nourishment (even though I'm tired of taking all of them)
• We have great friends.
  
• We FINALLY have some medical coverage (we're just hoping it works)
• We have ice cream :)
• We have working vehicles to get us from point A to point B safely.
  
• We have temples where we can be sealed for all time and eternity.
• We have a fuzzy not so little cat that gives us a reason to laugh.
  
• We have a prophet who leads and guides us here on the earth today.
• We have wholesome music.

While this list might seem long, it's not everything. We have lots to be grateful for, especially each other. Though I have been sick, tired, and in pain, I am grateful for the ability to expand our family. While they may be stubborn, children are a gift from God and I hope that we as parents will be able to raise this child unto righteousness so that he may be able to walk through the temple doors one day, serve a mission and be married for all time and eternity.
