I am thankful for my family. No matter what I’ve been through my family has been there for me. What I mean most especially is that I am thankful for my parents. Growing up I was thankful for them, but as an adult, I have a deeper and more profound appreciation for them. Friends and boyfriends have come and gone and other members of the family have drifted, but my parents have been a steady constant. Sure we may have butted heads over things from outfits I’ve worn to boyfriends I’ve chosen in the past, but one thing remains and stands the test of time: their love for me. I can go on and on about all they did for me – the sacrifice, the guidance they gave me and all that stuff, but you know how that goes and I’d be writing here forever! I feel very fortunate and blessed because not everyone in the world has the privilege of having two loving parents like do. Some people in this world experience parents who shun their offspring and this is truly sad. As an adult, I am thankful for my parents who are not only my parents at this stage in my life, but who are also my best friends as well.
Anyone want to share a story or anecdote about their relationship with THEIR parents? Feel free to leave a comment below!
XOXOXOXO,
