TT006 - Thankful for Scott
I always said I wasn't having kids, and part of that was not getting married. Here I am blessed with a life and family that I never planned for. I could never imagine my future self with any of the guys that I met/dated.
Scott has shown me that ultimately, my decision was right in how he has made God and our marriage a priority. Like I mentioned last week, marriage isn't easy and this step-blended family deal escalates that. So I am eternally thankful for my loving husband, Scott.
Again, I am not sitting here with rose-colored glasses, as a matter of fact, we are going through a bit of a tough time right now but we we are doing this together as a couple. Because one thing is certain, life will always have its ups and downs and we are blessed when we can weather the storms and share the victories with a Godly, loving spouse.
Take 30 seconds with me to be grateful for your spouse and if you are single, be thankful for all the people that you have dated and the strength for not settling.

TT005 - Thankful for Gil & Brenda and Family Life
Being married 2 years I quickly realized that I was NOT prepared in any form or fashion even though I had always heard marriages take work, I had NO IDea!
Getting married later in life, this being a second marriage for Scott, blended family with kids on both sides, 70% divorce statistic for blended families....the odds were stacked against us. We were definitely not on the right track and I am thankful that we came in touch with Family Life an organization whose whole existence centers around building families through building strong marriages. https://www.familylife.com/
Through that organization, thankfully we met the amazing duo, Gil and Brenda, who have walked alongside us to help us get back on track and moving our marriage forward. https://gilandbrenda.com/ https://youtu.be/IqX9M5zvG94
Take 30 seconds with me to be grateful for family members, friends and/or church cheerleaders that support your marriage and if you're not married that support you and your growth as an individual.

TT004 - Thankful for my Faith
Every adult has to decide what faith looks like in their life. I am thankful during the heavy times that life throws at me that I have my faith to carry me through. I am thankful that I grew up going to church and learning about God and the things of God. This world can be so bleak and hopeless without faith in God.
Take 30 seconds with me to be grateful for your faith/prayer/meditation that helps you get through the rough patches of life!

TT003 - Thankful for my Body
How many times do we stand in front of the mirror and look at ourselves, and criticize? As we get older we find more and more things that we don’t like as gravity and aging rack up points! We/I am often very critical of our bodies and today I want to flip the script and be thankful for my wonderful body that supports me every day!
Take 30 seconds with me to be grateful for your body because you have a wonderful, amazing body no matter the shape or size!

TT002 - Thankful for my Mom
One day not too long ago, my mom told me something that realllly impacted me that I was like wow. We were talking about my “next business idea” lol and she said, “I know in your mind but whatever standards you have you don’t see yourself as successful, but I see you as successful.” And when I got off of the phone with her I thought about how many people in this world don’t get to hear their parents tell them that. The conversation keeps coming back to me and every time I think about it, I am thankful for a mom that loves me and has always supported me. We don't have to wait until mother's day to be thankful for our mommas!
Maybe it is not your mom, maybe it is your dad, grandparents or someone else who has nurtured you in life....take 30-seconds and be thankful for the positive people in your life!
