Friends...
It has been a year.
A year of growth...
A year of hardship...
A year of joy, and unexpected pain.

I am grateful for it all, but especially, for my ability to have gratitude every single day. To look around myself and see the tiniest bits of beauty on the darkest of days. To know that I am loved and held up by countless friends and family. To be able to look past myself and help others in their time of need. To have a wonderful husband, and crazy kitties. To have talents that amaze even myself. And for all the little things in between, I am grateful.
