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.
