What I Am Thankful For Day 7

Today I am thankful for my parents.  You know, you never know how hard parenting can be until you become a parent.  And even after you become a parent you sometimes have a mental list of things you do not want to do with your kids that your parents did to/with you.  We are not perfect, but I think we all want whats best for our kids and try to give them the best we can. 
My parents are definitly guilty of this...maybe even to a fault.  They still spoil me and my kids.  I am thankful that God gave me parents who love the Lord and brought me up in church.   I try to never take anything they do for me and my family for granted.  My mom with her unselfishness, my Dad with his MANY wise words.....I love them both and hope that I am as good of a parent as they have been to me.

Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
