Thankful Heart and a Giving Hand

A year has past since my last post. I am so grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ, a Heavenly Father who loves me, my support system of family, friends, and neighbors. I am grateful to be sealed to my husband for time and all eternity, my two beautiful children, and a home in which to share our lives in. I am grateful for my husband's work and the opportunity I have to be a stay at home mom. I am grateful for my health and well being and those that support me in my efforts to regular physical fitness and activity as well as mental and emotional well being--body, mind, and soul.

My heart breaks to see friends,  family and neighbors who aren't so fortunate. I wish I could reach out and help each one of you. You are all in my thoughts and prayers and I want nothing more than joy and happiness for you and your loved ones. I love to be needed and I love to serve others. So many of you have served me and wanted nothing in return. That is unconditional love at its best and I hope and pray that I can pay it forward in my own little ways. The Spirit of Christmas is the peace and comfort and joy that we can share with each other by showing our love for all mankind.

The following is a work in progress, working backwards from Thanksgiving to Memorial Day's 1/2 marathon. The other 1/2 of the year will be soon to follow as well as labels if I find time. I figured something is better than nothing!
