30 Days of Thanks -- Day 14

I thank God for…my Mom & Dad.

I love them so very, very much and am so amazingly blessed to have them as my mom and dad.

In our house, they raised three girls while raising up the Lord.

They taught me to talk, to laugh, to play, to be respectful. They taught me to learn, to read, to write, and to love Jesus. They taught me how to tie my shoe, how to laugh with reckless abandon, and how to drive a tractor.

In our house, there was ALWAYS encouragement, ALWAYS understanding, ALWAYS support, ALWAYS laughter, ALWAYS two-hour family dinners talking around the table, and ALWAYS infinite amounts of love.

They are my nourishing roots, my backbone of strength, my pillar to lean on, and my ultimate cheerleaders.

They gave me life, love, laughter, huge pancakes for breakfast, and two wonderful sisters.

They are absolutely the greatest parents in the world, and I am SO THANKFUL for them, for ALL they have selflessly and generously done for me, and for their amazing, wonderful, and never-ending “I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always, as long as your living, my baby you’ll be” love.

“THANKS be to God for His indescribable gift!”
--2 Corinthians 9:15
