A lot of thought...

Over the last few days I've been doing a lot of thinking. I think that so many times in our lives(well I shouldn't speak for you-but I know for myself) we take the small things for granted. I know that I take the fact for granted that we have running water,heat,food on our table, and even a nice car. How many people go without any of those things? And even more importantly than those material things-how about family and friends? I couldn't ask for any better family or friends.

On Tuesday, my friend Brad's beautiful wife Nikole was in a major car accident. I only met her once-but I know that if Brad married her-she's got to be the best! They just got married in May. From my understanding it sounds as if she will live, but I'm not sure what kind of shape she will be in. As soon as I heard about the accident-I thought of Jason and I. We are newlyweds too. I can't imagine losing him, or something that horrifying happening to him. It made me think more of how grateful I am for him! He is the best! I couldn't ask for a better husband! Then that led me to think of her Mom. Since Jason and I are expecting-I already feel a motherly instinct in me. It just broke my heart to think of a mother fearing losing their child. I simply can't imagine. Then that led me to the thought of her siblings. I know that feeling 100%. I know the pain of having a brother/sister in a life-threatening situation, and having no control over anything. It is such a heart-wrenching feeling. Our thoughts and prayers are definitely going out to the Hale Family. I know that sometimes in the tough situations in life-we think that Heavenly Father has forgotten about us-but He hasn't. He is reaching out to us-we just have to accept Him.

As we come upon this "American Thanksgiving", and Christmas season-I think its important we remember to tell ALL those in our lives we love-that we love them. Life can change in the blink of an eye-it's not worth it to leave anything unsaid.

For a small update-still job hunting!! I'm hoping and praying something will come up too! As soon as I get a job-ya'll will be the first to know!

Have a great day! Love you all.
