Thankful

This Thanksgiving holiday has been a little different than most years. I suppose it's because Next Thanksgiving I'll be 20ish day from graduating college.

Scary.

Getting to this point in my life has truly prompted me to be thankful for the last 21 years and all of the people who have been a part of my life. 

God has been so faithful in teaching me how to be present and contents. 

So, like every blog on the internet today, here's my thankful list. 

1. Christ - Not to be cliche, but really. He's too good. 
2. My parents - I hope that someday I understand how much you have given up for us. Thanks for making the tough calls, for loving us deeply.
3. Matt Bay - You are THE coolest. Seriously. The reason you love me is a mystery, but I'm so blessed that you do.
4. College - It's been a crazy 3 years. Thankful to not have 3 more. Thankful for the friends I've made, the professors who legitimately care, God's providence in affording it. 
5. Work - Buckner International popped up on my radar during my first semester of college. Somehow, I landed a job, and it is SO cool. Thankful for fun co-workers, the best boss, and the opportunity to do something I care about.
6. The Pontiac - Oh, that baby has had her share of troubles. She has sucked my bank account dry over and over, but she gets me to work everyday, and that's all I can ask. But y'all, don't ever buy a Pontiac...
