Some more Thanksgiving

Now for a more thankful Thanksgiving-y post.
I'd like to share 5 things that I am grateful for, in no particular order.  
I am thankful for my Louis.  He is so amazing.  He is my rock.  If I'm having a hard day all I need is Louis there by my side and it's all better.  He sacrifices so much for our family and I know he would do anything for me.  I am so thankful that I have my best friend to spend eternity with.  
I am thankful for motherhood.  I'm so thankful for my chance to be a mother on this earth.  It's an amazing blessing.  Being at home and being a mother is greater than anything else I could be doing with my life at this time.  I'm thankful for Avery making me a mother and how happy she always is, she's made this first year so easy!
I am thankful for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  I am thankful for my parents who raised me in the church.  I am thankful for all the joy it's brought into my life.  It's brought me knowledge, I know who I am, I know where I came from, I know why I'm here, and I know where I'm going.  along with this I want to say I'm thankful for temples.  I'm thankful that I was able to go through the temple for myself and that I am able to go for others who have passed on and were not able to go for themselves.  I am thankful for the spirit that resides in temples and that I can feel closer to our Savior.  
I love this picture.  I am thankful for my Savior.  I can't even express this in the right way.  No words are good enough.  I am so thankful for the example he is, and for the sacrifices he made for me.  I am so thankful for the love he has for our children.  It's a blessing knowing that they are being watched over and that they hold a very special place in His heart.
I am thankful for glasses and contacts.  If I were to live in a time before them it would be so sad!  So so so sad!  I wouldn't be able to do much.  I would only be able to see clearly about a foot ahead of me.  I'm serious, my eyes are horrible!  You know it's bad when your eye doctor is even making fun of you for it!  
That's all, I hope everyone took some time out of their busy weekend to think about what's most important in their lives and what they're most thankful for.
