Thankfulness.

 

It’s the one week a year that you can’t get away from the thankfulness. So we’ll add ours to the internet!

 

Adrienne:

I’m thankful for God’s infinite grace. As a mom, wife, friend, co-worker, I realize every day how imperfect and flawed I am. But I’m reminded later, most days, that grace is available. Grace is the free and unmerited favor of God. And the grace from people is even more a reflection of its importance. I hope I can be as graceful as others in my life.  

 

I’m also thankful for good health this year. I’m almost done with a mercifully uneventful pregnancy. I’ve skirted most bugs in the office. And I’ve been surrounded by friends and family going through some tough health issues. So I’m also reminded that health isn’t to be taken for granted.

 

Kelly:

 

I’m thankful for the little things that got me through the big things this year – camping, my brother quoting Dumb and Dumber, my neighbor texting me when my smoke alarm goes off while I’m cooking dinner, free tea at work,  IKEA trips with good friends, $5 movie nights with mom,  celebrations, unwarranted kindness from strangers, my nephew’s curiosity, an enthusiastic church community, clothing swaps, old photos & notes my sister sporadically sends me in the mail – and the answered prayers that came to me in the form of friends.

 

 

 

And we’re thankful for our readers! Our one year blog-anniversary is in January, and we’ve had so much fun doing this thing called realgrownups. So thanks for encouraging our adventure by reading our thoughts.

 

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
