I'm thankful for:
-the gospel
-the Savior
-the scriptures
-an amazing husband
who made me feel luck the best mother ever on mother's day. (even though I haven't met my children yet) He bought me a new dress to wear to church, made me breakfast in bed, bought me flowers and two bags of my favorite candy (gummy bears and hershey kisses with almonds) and made me a delicious dinner all by himself and didn't let me clean one thing! What a hunk!
-amazing family members
-great friends, incredible friends- who can't necessarily relate but are so sympathetic and such great listeners
-other people going through what I am going through, who lift me up!
-days without tears

-my students
-flowers, I like flowers
-the sun
-blue skies
-sunny days
-work to keep me busy
-gardens (I have my first very own garden right now)
-cell phones (so I can call great people to vent to)
-FERTILITY DRUGS
-CURES
-OPK's
-months only being 30 days (I mean they could be 100, wouldn't that be awful)
-cars
-movies
-blankets
-food
-candy
-T.V.
-Strength
-Hope

-millions of other things, but my hubby just got back from running, so I am going to go appreciate him to his face!! Bye!

Tender Mercies

I just want to say that although I really want this blessing of giving birth to a baby and I want it sooner rather than later, I know that I am still so blessed. The Lord with holds some blessings, in order to bless us more later, or to make the timing right or to teach us something. But that doesn't mean he with holds all blessings. Oh no. He has blessed me so much throughout my entire life. Sometimes I even feel selfish for asking for anything more because I feel so abundantly blessed by all the many things he has blessed me with. Last weekend my husband and I were able to get away and there were so many things that happened that were truly tender mercies, things that made our weekend less stressful and things that just showed us how much he loves us and even if we can't have this blessing right now doesn't mean he isn't blessing us so much more than we realize.
