Lots to be Thankful For

I thank God for things everyday. I think its kind of silly to wait until November to make a list of things your thankful for. Although we are a bit dysfunctional, I am thankful for my family. It might not be the perfect stereotypical family but its mine. As I've gotten older, I've learned to stop trying to make it something its not and just be appreciative of the hand I've been dealt. Which leads me to Thanksgiving. We are hosting Thanksgiving this year at our house. I have a lot of anxiety about this but the truth is I'm really glad we're doing it. We're inviting both families. This is our life now so we might as well get it all out there. I'm anxious because we're having guests stay for a few days who all have their own way of doing things. I'm anxious because I don't cook all that well. I'm anxious because we have the smallest oven ever invented. I'm anxious because we don't have a dining room table. I'm anxious because everyone is invited and hopefully everyone behaves and gets along like adults. But at the end of the day, I'm thankful that we have a house where we can do this and family to invite. No matter how quirky they may be, I love them!
