Many Blessings

Sometimes when you read a story, or see a newsclip or hear of others struggles, pains and triumphs you learn alot about life, and everything it has to offer. Recently, I was introduced to a young girl who fought a hard battle, and recieved angel wings. Although I never met her in person, I found that she had an angelic heart and had a quality of faith, that I hope to pass on to my children.
In the very end with her family surrounding, she said there were tons of kitties and puppies running around. She was heading to her happy place where she would no longer be in pain, but yet be eternally young to watch over all those whom she loved and loved her in return.
It amazes me how God or a greater being, will guide you and give you strength in ways that you would never gain by yourself.
As the holidays approach, I realize that 2007 was a year of many blessings. It started back on January 18th when I took the 9th home pregnancy test and confirmed that indeed I was pregnant. Although cautiously happy due to the fact that 4 months prior I had a miscarriage, I began a long journey to parenthood. I went to the first dr. appointment, and everything was measuring right on track, and Dr. B said that I could have an early ultrasound. I was so elated, and yet nervous. So February 22nd came and off to the ultrasound clinic I went....wow what a double blessing that would be....we found out it was twins.
March rolled in, 12 weeks into the pregnancy, and boom...problem! I had bleeding and cramping...oh no, my worst fear. (I head into a specialist who became the best doctor in the world! She is the one who saw me through the rest of the pregnancy and delivered my precious girls.) At the ultrasound that day, we see two healthy babies! I was shaking and crying in happiness. But then, I was pulled out of work. The rest of the pregnancy though went on without any glitches.
September 13th, brought on even more blessings as it was the birthday.
2007 brings those blessings that make me happy. Not only my wonderful husband, family and life, but my girls whom bring the most joy in my life.
Happy Thanksgiving, and may those blessings close to you bring you as much happiness as I have.
