thankful for what I have, thankful for what I escaped

It feels so good to be a part of a family so full of love and acceptance for each other. Nathan's family offers structure, consistency, willingness to lend a hand, generosity and mounds of support. Being from a family of brokenness, I only have experienced these family qualities at random. This is how I know God is real. He understands what my heart needs to survive and flourish, then He provides. I'm so ill-deserving of what He has to offer, but he gives it to me anyway.

Here are some pictures of the fam from the past month or so:


















And of course, a picture of my girl...

She got a very fancy new halter from my brother-in-law and sister-in-law for Christmas. I can't wait to put it on her.
