One of the things that I am so very grateful for is a large family. Each one is an example to me and they are reminders of the things in life that are of most importance.
When my family was young they taught me how to love, how to work, to sacrifice and to make the most of what one had and so many other things.
Now that they are all grown, they make me laugh, they make me think, they help me see things from different perspectives, they make me feel appreciated, they make me proud.
All has not been perfect and there have been hard times also. There have been mistakes, there has been hurt and tears, there has been saddness and worry.
I am even thankful for the hard times because many times in the end, it is the hard times that have brought us together the most, to help, to support and show extra love that is needed.
I am thankful for a large, ever growing family. They each have helped and continue to help make me a better person.
Thanks Heavenly Father, you knew I needed them.
