Agreed budders and @bubbs119 this community has been a great force in getting me through many things. I look forward everyday to seeing what everyone is up to and building friendships.
AFM: I am most thankful for my baby girl. It was worth the wait to be able to have such a precious rainbow baby. She is my light and my joy.
I am thankful for my husband and Everett. Looking at both of them always makes me feel like no matter where we live, what we have, or what life throws at us, as long as I have these two guys with me, life will always be good.
I'm thankful for a great family and amazing friends. I'm thankful for the jobs that DH and I have and I'm thankful each time my husband comes home safe from a shift. I hope all of you J15 mamas know just how great you are. You have made me laugh, answered thousands of questions for me and made me feel like I'm getting the hang of this parenting thing (sometimes). Happy thanksgiving ladies! And happy Thursday to the non-Americans!
I am thankful for a God who sacrificed his son for us. This resonates even more now that I have a son of my own and know I would do anything to keep him safe.
I am beyond thankful for my husband and how hard he works for our family. He is such a great leader for our family and keeps me grounded. Watching him with Owen makes my heart so happy. Which brings me to Owen. All the feels. I never could have imagined how much he would change my life and my heart. I am so grateful to be his mommy and hope I can show him how to grow to be a man of God. Carl the bulldog completes my little family.
My family and in laws are amazing. They are crazy supportive and so loving. I know a lot of people have family problems and that we are so lucky with ours.
My job keeps me on my toes and makes me feel like I'm making a difference. I love sharing the joy of music with all kinds of kids.
Watching the news makes me thankful to live in this country where I can choose freely my religion, my opinion, my job, and many other things.
And seriously, I am so thankful for all of you. This had become a great community of women I trust and care for. I'm loving watching our little ones grow and wish that we all lived closer to each other.
In a slightly less serious note, but still important, my baby slept from 12-545. To feel human again
Edit because writing with one hand while nursing is hard.
I am thankful the universe saw fit to bring the love of my life back to me four years ago, after losing touch for nine years, and that this year we all get to celebrate with P, our absolute miracle baby, who is just the cherry on top of the our already amazing story. I am so blessed to share my life with these three wonderful boys and everything else in it is just gravy.
I am also extremely thankful that our Boston terrier is still with us today. We thought we only had weeks left with him when he was diagnosed in early September but here he still is, almost three months later.
Im thankful to be in a good place with DH. We've definately had our share of ups and downs, but all and all he is still my best friend.
Im thankful to have rebuilt a relationship with my parents after my rebellious years and im thankful to have a better relationship with my ILs now too- its been a while since we've gotten into a true screaming match.
Im thankful for my two beautiful children.
Im thankful to have found a career i truely enjoy and keeps me balanced.
Im thankful to have all of you as my mommy friends.
ETA Happy Thanksgiving- I hope you will soon have your stomachs filled with greatness!

I'm thankful for my little T, who was a suprise baby. I always thought J would be my last chance at baby snuggles, but here we are getting them again! I love being mommy to 3 kiddos!
I am thankful for my DH who has turned into a great farmer, despite being brought up in SoCal suburbs.
I'm thankful to have a house to live in.
For my parents, who gave up so much for my brothers and I and raised us on the farm.
Also, for fabulous IL's that love all their grandkids and will drop everything to be with them.
I am thankful for so many things, but I think first and foremost, I am incredibly thankful for my husband. He is my rock and has supported me through so much. He has seen me at my worst, and still chooses to stand by my side. He is my absolute best friend and I would be lost without him.
I am thankful for my beautiful son, Beckett. I never knew I could love another person so much, but my heart bursts when I look at him. He is truly the light of our lives, and things are so much better with him here.
I am thankful for both mine and DH's families and friends. We have so many incredible, supportive people in our lives, and although we live far away from many of them, we constantly feel their love.
I am thankful for gainful employment that is fulfilling. I love my students and I love what I do. I cannot imagine dragging myself to a job that I didn't love on a daily basis.
I am thankful for food, clean water, shelter, good health, freedom, and general safety. We are so incredibly lucky to have these things, when so many on the other side of the world do not. Recent news events have really made me realize how fortunate we are. I am blown away at some of the things we see on the news. Really puts things in perspective.
I am thankful for all of you in J15. I truly value your friendship, guidance and support over the last year. I love that we have gotten to know a bit about each other during such an amazing time in our lives, and I love watching all of your LOs grow!

Happy thanksgiving to you all. I'm truly so thankful for this community to talk, for advice and support, and to watch our LOs grow. I lurve you guise.
Thankful for my amazing husband and my little boy, who has the sweetest smile that always makes everything all better.
Thankful that my mom is getting healthy and the treatment she needs and that my dad retired in time to be able to care of her. And my amazing MIL who loves M so much and does so much for us each and every day.
And yes, to all the wine- the shiraz's, the malbecs, the temperillos, and the Sauvignons. I❤️You.
Like jessila, I am thankful for a savior that loves me despite my flaws.
I am thankful for my husband, Tins, and my family. They are amazing and I am so lucky to have them all. My in-laws and extended family are awesome and I'm glad to have such a good relationship with them. As far as Tins goes, I absolutely cannot explain this magnitude of the love I feel for this tiny human of mine. It's incredible, and I feel so fortunate to be able to experience this emotion and share my life with her.
My friends are some of the most compassionate, caring, and strong people I know. Even though we may disagree or have differing opinions, they still love me and respect me. They always challenge me to think outside the box and help me grow as a person.
Thank you to each and every one of you. We come from so many different walks of life, each have our own unique family make-ups, and our opinions and stances on topics sometimes differ dramatically. But despite all that, we have a community that is respectful and knowledgeable. I have learned so much about being a mom and so much about having a baby from you lovely ladies.
