Any person that is alive has something to be thankful for. I am so thankful for a loving God, and for never giving up on me. For hearing even my silent prayers of my heart. I am thankful for my family and friends. God has blessed me with three wonderful children and I couldn’t be more proud of them. God has blessed with me eight beautiful grandkids and one great-grandkid. My heart is full.

I am thankful for a loving church family and the kids that I get to teach each Sunday. The joy of watching them soak in the Words of Jesus.
