Counting Blessings...

Happy Thanksgiving to all you Americans out there. I decided to share just un petit peu of my gratitude and the blessings I see every day to feel that holiday spirit despite being on the other side of the Atlantic. I hope it is a good day for all of you!!

First off, I'm thankful for my calling and every experience that it has given me. Everyone in my family, ward, and group of friends that have made this possible for me holds a special place in my heart and always will. I hope you reap every blessing that God gives you. You are generous and loving people.

I must share my thanks for all of those we teach, especially our new BIG family that harbors so much hope and faith despite their crippling trials.

I am so thankful to be a part of something this genuine and lasting. I have never felt so accomplished and ready to take on whatever comes. There have been so many people that have impacted me so greatly and provided me with such a valuable perspective, it's impossible to say that God didn't have a hand in making these things happen.

In brief, I am thankful for a Heavenly Father who gives me a life that I clearly don't deserve. I am thankful for His patience with my shortcomings. I am thankful for His hand that has pulled me up when I've found myself sinking.

Thank you so much for who you are and your desire to be great people. Don't ever lose that fire. Your worth is immeasurable. I love you. Take care. Walk off all that turkey so you can enjoy Christmas :)
