What We're Thankful For

Morning Swooners,

Nahomi and I had our readers share what you're thankful for this year on this giveaway post and so we wanted to do the same. With the Thanksgiving holiday upon us and with all the tragedies going around the world, we wanted to share the good in us and you. To remind us that there is still good things and people and that we should take a moment to just acknowledge it. I'll start us off.

I am thankful for my husband. He may not always understand where I may be coming from but he tries to cheer me up and bring me sweets even without me asking.

I am thankful for my parents and family. We may not be the closest family but I know that when the chips are down, we band together and tackle whatever it may be together.

I am thankful for my friends. Without them, I'll probably be one crazy, obsessive, lonely girl with no one to share my crazy, obsessive, and random ideas with.

I am thankful for the readers of Books and Swoons. To those who have stuck with us or come visit every now and then. I am forever grateful for that.

And I am always thankful for Nahomi. Without whom I probably wouldn't have passed Statistics II or Research Methods. And for always being there and understanding me when no one else does.

Beautifully said Jenn. I've been thinking about what I am thankful for since we decided to do this post. I realized that it is really easy to get caught up in the daily rush and not take a moment to appreciate everything I have. So here goes.

I am thankful I am alive and healthy. I often take for granted that being healthy isn't a given in life and at any moment that can change.

I am thankful for my family. Tony, Mia, my mom and many others that put up with my craziness on a daily basis. Thank you for bringing me joy, laughter and so much love.

I am forever grateful for Jenn. My person. You keep me sane, and accept my crazy and unorganized self.

I am thankful for Dai. She is the best friend/sister in-law I have.

I am thankful for my boss and co-workers. Sometimes we clash but we are like a family. They have a special place in my heart.

I am thankful I have a roof over my head, clothes, and food to eat.

I am thankful for you our readers! I really appreciate that you take time to come visit us and read what we have to say. Thank You!

The list continues for both Jenn and me, we have so much to be thankful for. I want you to slow down and just be thankful for a moment. Take the time to appreciate your life and the people in it.
