So Thankful

There is so much that I am thankful for, but today, I want to share a few thoughts on one of the most important people in my life: My mom.

She came to Virginia to spend a week with me for the Thanksgiving holiday, and I didn't realize how much I've missed her until I picked her up from the airport and kissed her cheek! Ah, there's NOTHING like a mom. I mean, there's nothing and no one that could ever take the place of a mother. I love my mom and am SO thankful and grateful for her life. Just being in the same room with her is inspiring. I love that God loves me so much, that He would spoil me with an amazing mom. Wow. He's so good!

My mom has been in town since Saturday, and so far she's met almost every friend, confidant, co-worker, pastor, mentor, etc. involved with my life... I mean, my house has been a revolving door since the first day she arrived - EVERYONE has been either SO excited to meet her for the first time or so excited to see her again! We've had lots of laughs and amazing conversations with just about everyone! I love friends and family. So far, My mom and I have had a ball! I've spoiled her with some fun events, kept everything a secret and surprised her with some cool things along the way. It's been fun! This afternoon, I am looking forward to spending time with my mom and a few friends around the Thanksgiving meal table. So excited! This is going to be another amazing holiday with amazing people who will inspire me through a lifetime!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
