I first have to talk about my Klay-doh...he is my best friend and the person I love doing my life with and this time in my life is no exception. I am so thankful that unlike me he actually doesn't mind being at home, so when he is off he isn't stir crazy and doesn't mind hanging out with me. He has also been amazing when it comes to keeping my house clean and getting my house back into order after our renovations. And I have to add he does it all without complaint! Not only does he come home, take care of me, and our home, but he also works 12hr shifts and then runs his own business. He spends time listing on eBay/online, answering emails and shipping. He seriously is my super hero and although I'm not sure how he does all of it, I am beyond grateful that God blessed me more than I deserve with him!
My family...I'm not going going to lie, I've always known how blessed I am with them and can never remember a time in my life where they haven't been here for me. They are the first to show up unexpected and do whatever needs to be done without being asked. Of course my family wouldn't be what it is without my parents! I love them so much! I cannot even begin to show my gratefulness to them from what they have done in my life and it seems they keep adding to my debt. In the two weeks they have spent whole days here helping clean my entire house, cooking dinners, running errands, redecorating the house, and so much more. They were here the this week, and my dad spent his entire day off putting up shelves for me that he built, and changing out all my light switches and outlets. He does this without complaint and without even being asked. My mom, well what can I say
about her...she is busy, always doing something, she has done our laundry, cleaned the house, cooked a ton of meals, grocery shopped and so much more. She calls me every day and wants to do something to make this time for me as easy as possible. I just can't say enough about my parents! I am also equally blessed with my siblings, I have three brothers and a sister, all who are married so that's a lot of people who help! And I'm thankful that I honestly love all of them so very much and again already they have brought me gifts, made meals, gone shopping for me and just have come over and kept me company. It also is convenient that they all live within 15min of us. The Lord has definitely blessed me with all of them. I also must say I have an amazing in law family...they might not all be the closest, but the call and thoughtful texts to check up on me definitely have a way of making you feel loved!
And now i have to say I am thankful for friends....friends that feel like family. God has truly blessed Klay and I with some amazing friends to do life with and they have definitely been here for us during this time. They have also ran errands, made dinners, rearranged meeting places, brought lunches and have just come to hang out. Not to mention emails, texts and phone calls to check in. Life without them would not be the same!
I can't say enough about how grateful I feel. I just had to write a little note before I busted with thankfulness for everything that has been done. I still am not a fan of this whole bed rest thing, but I am trying my hardest to be still and take care of our baby boy. I can see how God has
used this time to show me how much I am loved!
Pictures below are some of love I've gotten!
