I am thankful ....

For most of the month of November, I posted here on Romanskiville almost daily something I was thankful for.  At the end of the month things started to get a little crazy around here and I never got to sit and write about #29 and #30. I had them all planned out too ... #29 was the girls and #30 was Paul.  

#29 - I am thankful for my girls, Brooke Tetlow and Kristen Dominika

They fill our house with wonder, excitement, innocence, and unconditional love.  They did not come easily or without work.  I appreciate the boundless energy and never ending questions, even when there are times when I seem to be out of patience with them.

Their pretty smiles and bright eyes can turn my day around in a flash.  The love they have for their extended family and the excitement that overflows when they know they will be spending time with them - fills my heart with pride.  We are blessed with these 2 beautiful, loving, generous, kind, thoughtful little girls.  I am thankful for every day we share with them.

#30 - I am thankful for my husband, Paul

Through thick and thin, good times and bad, he is there .. a steady, constant presence.  We are not just husband and wife, but friends  ... he appreciates my cooking and my job - even though I am pretty sure he doesn't really understand what I do.  He is the best daddy my girls could have and he provides for us both tangible and intangible.  We were not High School Sweethearts or first loves, but we eventually followed the broken road and ended up here, in Romanskiville, building our 'happily ever after'  and let me tell you, he is my dream come true.
