I know this is a Facebook tradition, and I thought that I would rather post here all of the wonderful things that I am thankful for. Today, I am thankful for my large family. I have 5 children, and came from a small family, so I love how crazy and chaotic the house is. Sometimes it is hard to deal with, but I know that my days of crazy, unexpected chaos are numbered and I will be so sad once they start leaving. My oldest will be 18 in March, so it isn't far off.
I am so thankful for all of these wonderful children that I have been blessed with!
This picture is the first day of school this year, back in August.

Aw this photo is so precious my friend.
I applaud you for sharing and raising your lovely children to grow up!
I know, it is so hard when they leave...
You will always be with him when he does though the oldest.
I only have one son who is grown now.
And I am thankful for him too.

That is a good looking group of kids you have! Kids can be hard to take care of at times but they are worth every bit of stress they put us through. I have six boys and I love them all to pieces.

It is a good thing to have a large family things just seem to settle in.
