What do you have to be thankful for this Thanksgiving?

[BIG_DADDY]

This has been one hell of a year. I am thankful that for my father still being around. A little over a year ago my father went in for cancer and had his bladder removed. He still had it in both of his ureter’s but started homeopathic treatment and has had negative test results ever since.

I am thankful that my sister has come back from Iraq again another year in one piece without any problems. After 6 years of her trying to adopt I have also been blessed with a little nephew who’s birth date is only one day off of what my own child’s should have been.

I am thankful for not losing my wife and son when it easily could have went the other way. I am thankful that we are all healthy and happy now and he is actually in the top 1% for his height. He is a very healthy boy.

I am thankful my grandmother made it to 100 and we were all there to celebrate it with her a week and a half ago. She was foggy at first then we were blessed with a sudden clarity that would last the night while four generations of our family spent time with her.

I am thankful to an awesome family most of who stayed to see my son and nephew dedicated in church the next morning. Our family took up two entire rows of the church. Pretty special.

I am very thankful for my own health which has allowed me to compete and bring home medals in a year that was very turbulent.

I am also very thankful to my family and friends who are more awesome and loving than anyone could ever ask to have. I truly feel god had blessed us this year.

I am thankful for all three of my children and the love we all share.

I am thankful for the beautiful daughter-in law and the grandson that will soon arrive.

I am thankful that all my children are happy and well adjusted.

I am thankful that the creator saw fit to allow me a good life with a sharp intellect so that I could succeed in life and the drive to take advantage of it.

I am thankful for the entertainment value this BB provides, it brings me laughs and smiles many times when I am down.

Finally I am thankful for the medical care that makes a nearly normal life possible with my renal disease.

Thankful for my two children. My son who is a mini me and makes me so proud and gives me reason to smile. My daughter, just like mom. Makes me pull out my hair and then feel like crying I love her so much
Thankful for my health and the health of my family
Thankful for this great country that despite being handicapped by reeruns in politics, continues to be the greatest in the world because of her citizens.
Thankful for a gracious and forgiving god. He has given me more in life than I ever asked for and forgiven more than I ever thought he would.
Finally, as I sit down to eat, thatnkful for the food that we take for granted on thanksgiving, but that many in the world, including innocent children do not have. Happy Thanksgiving

It is awesome being a dad, isn’t it? If I’d known what I was missing out on, I’d have probably done it sooner. Then I might’ve had more than one (that I know of ).

I love being a dad. Nothing better than spending time with my boy. I think it's easy to get all wrapped up in what's going on with us sometimes. Almost missed out on one of the best things in life. When I went to grandmothers 100th I dropped in on a friend I had not seen in a long time. He adopted 6 kids, 5 of them special needs who were labeled unadoptable and were going to be institutionalized until they were 18. Best run family I have ever seen. Oldest one is entering the brain bowl. Had an 8 year old tearing apart and rebuilding electronic engines. More love in that house than you could ever imagine. I have never seen him so happy. Not for everyone for sure but the difference he is making in those kids life is amazing.
