ThanksGIVING

On Friday, as we all know, I was able to come home to help out with the Fundraiser for the people in Mexico and Kenya. I felt it was such a blessing to see how there are amazing people out there that want to make a difference. I was so proud of my Mom and Dad especially. I could see all the hard work and effort they put into everything and I literally felt so proud to be their daughter. They are the kind of people that I hope to someday become, but for sure the list didn't end there. 

I talked to a lady who was Carrie Grubb's visiting teacher that came to support her, which made me want to be a better visiting teacher. 

It meant a lot to me that Chaney my friend from High School  came, which made me want to be a more supportive friend.

 When Aunt Jan came down to help us out, it made me want to be a better family member. 

When Aunt Tawnya mentioned in her text to me that her and Buster Bob heard about our event and made a donation, I knew their donation would be generous and it made me want to be willing to give like that. 

Seeing my younger siblings, Tavis and Torie and how much they were involved made me want to just squeeze them to death because I just miss them so much and I'm so proud, especially knowing what other kids their age would be doing on a Friday night. 

I wish that more people would have come! But, the ones that did and were involved, are the ones that not only put in effort for themselves, but their effort made up for the lack of the other people. I am so happy and so honored to be a part of the lives of the people that are exceptional and do more than what they are asked to do. I hope and pray that no matter where I'm at and what I am doing in life, I will always do the same.
