I meant to start this earlier

I am stealing this idea from my friend...I am going to post daily for the month of November, something I am grateful for. Since I started late, today I will post 3 things to get me caught up. These will be in no particular order for the whole month.

1. Health. I am relatively healthy. I rarely get sick. There is very little about being pregnant that is truly difficult for me (except just sheer numbers of pregnancies and this one may put me over the edge.) Needless to say, we have had our fair share of problems; stroke, epilepsy, RSV babies, broken bones that need surgery...but I still think we are sick very little.

2. Family. I have a beautiful family. I can't remember their names very well sometimes, but we have a good time when we're together. We work, play, and hang out together and always seem to have fun. Don't get me wrong, we have our moments:) I have the most wonderful parents and siblings. We watch out for each other and help each other. I never wonder what they think of me and my ability to parent my own family.

3. Ben's good job. Ben has always been able to provide for our family very well. I had to work when some of the kids were young, but since he graduated college and from the Air Force, I have not had to work. We don't make a heap of money, but he manages to take care of our little brood. Would we like to have more money? Of course, but our needs are covered and the majority of our wants. Anymore might be excess.

That's it for today.
