It's Thanksgiving


It’s Thanksgiving!

 I am excited as a young child. I love holidays. I feel such joy and gladness inside of me. I know part of that is because I have faith in God and know he knows who I am. I have been brought up in a Christian home and I have continued that tradition in my own home with my family. Today I give my thanks to God for all I have been given and for the challenges along the way that have helped shape my identity. I am full of gratitude that I can be alive another day to share with family this day of thanks.

Over the past few years I have been researching family history with ancestry.com and familysearch.org and I have learned about real people and their lives.  Also, how what they did helped me to shape a life of who I am. My ancestors came over by ship through harsh conditions to give me a life in this great country. They were pioneers who came west even though they faced harsh elements. So today I am grateful for God and all my family now and in the past and everyone that comes into my life to help shape who I am today.


Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
