Its kindof fun to think back to what you were doing...some good, some bad......things you are so thankful you didnt forget and others you wish you could. There has been many ups and downs, but all in all I am so thankful for all that I have, Jesus Christ, my family, love, my life, my home, clothes on my back and food in my belly..and Starbucks of course ..I have had, I do have and sure I will continue to have a great life
