although its not thanksgiving here in canada, i am thankful every day that in just 3 weeks i will be back in the dominican with the kids that have stolen my heart!
I am incredibly grateful for the blessing adoption has been in our life. Elijah is amazing and I shudder to think that I could have missed all of it if we hadn't so clearly heard God calling us to adoption. I grateful for the lessons we have learned (are learning) along the way and for the opportunity to see God's faithfulness in a very real way in our lives!
Happy Thanksgiving!
I'm thankful for God's grace, for His forgiveness, for His patience and love and provision. I'm grateful for His willingness to take my punishment on the cross so that I can spend eternity with Him. I'm thankful for my amazing husband and his incomprehensible love for me and I'm thankful for my kids – all of the them – homemade and adopted just the same.
I am thankful for my church family, healthy family members, a healthy (soon to arrive) nephew, and blogs like yours that give me hope!
Today I am most thankful for my husband and the journey to adoption that we are on! It is amazing to see the man that I love so open to the little boy we love in Ethiopia! I am thankful that soon we will bring him home as a family! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
I am thankful for God's grace and patience, for my incredible husband, my beautiful children, my church, the privilege of serving Him, for true friendship, and this great country we live in!
What a fun idea! Iam thankful for so many things this year…my sweet husband who is present in our home and in our lives. He sacrifices so much so that he can eat lunch at school with the boys, coach their teams and be an active role in their everyday lives.
I am thankful for three sweet boys that God has given us to raise. They are bulls in a china store most days but I would have it no other way.
So thankful that men and women are free to give orphans a home. A safe and loving home without regard to the color of their skin, where they will be cared for all their days.
There are so many things I could list but these are on my mind today.
I am thankful today for my wonderful husband and 5 wonderful kids. I am so very thankful for adoption and how it has changed our family. I am also very thankful for our time in Ethiopia and how it opened our eyes and changed our hearts. I am very thankful to be back in the adoption process to bring home another little Laughner. I am thankful for the opportunity that our family has to be part of a mission trip to Ethiopia this next week. Today I was really thankful that Allison got out of the hospital yesterday and we got to sleep in our beds and take hot showers and have clean clothes to put on. I am thankful for a day that I get to spend at home with all of my family. I am very thankful for our church family and our heavenly father who is always there for us….
There is so much to be thankful for!!! Thanks be to God our and Savior for everything!!!
I just hope that we continue to be thankful when "Thanksgiving" day is over. π
Much love to you and yours, Kari girl!!
Love,
Cali, Dietrich & kids
we feel so richly blessed by God for so many things. we are most thankful for our relationships with Him and who He is as our Creator, Father, Brother, Best friend…..We know that with Him there is nothing that we have to fear in this life and so much to look forward to in the life to come. We are so thankful for our blessings of each other, our children, and our soon-to-be baby girl from ethiopia:). we are so grateful for the adoption journey and all the many lessons we have learned along the way and how God has increased our faith immensely through it all!
in God's grace,

Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm thankful for so many reasons to be thankful!! I don't even know where to begin. As I told Silas in the car today, "I'm thankful for Jesus, because if we didn't have Jesus we wouldn't have nothin'". I'm thankful that God called us to adoption and opened our eyes to the world. I'm thankful for my husband, big 2 year old son, and the one in my womb who is kicking me as I type.
I have so much to be thankful for this year! God has truely blessed our family beyond belief. I am thankful for Jesus dying on the cross, wonderful family, friends, friendships, our freedom, clean water, a beautiful home, being able to save an orphan and give life to a child and the list is to big to type on here. I actually sat at home last night and wrote my thankful list. I sat and just weeped over all that God has blessed our family with. Thank you lord for so many blessing!
Tiffany, you are the winner!!! Thank you for sharing what you are thankful for. Please email me and let me know what Simply Love T shirt/size you want & your address. Congrats!!
Happy Thanksgiving!

So much, but today I am thankful for my family- my loving hubby and all 6 kiddos the Lord has entrusted us to raise.
I am thankful for my sons birthparents who made an amazing sacrafice and placed him in our arms 4 years ago! And for the beautiful little girl waiting for us in Ethiopia. And my amazing home grown boys!
Hey Kari,
I am so thankful for a God who continues to challenge us to rise up!! It doesn't matter who you are or where you are or what you are doing, God is a God who wants us to know Him more & more every day. For our family we answered the call to become career missionaries for the AG. That was a big step of faith, but God didn't stop calling us to do things for Him. Now we are stepping out & starting our adoption adventure:) I am so thankful & humble to be called of God to make a difference for Him in this crazy world. We can't wait to meet our future child!!!! God is sooooooo good!!!

I am thankful that I had a best friend who lived across the street from me as a child who I did everything with, including getting in trouble.

I'm thankful for a God who speaks and calls. I'm thankful for painful experiences that draw us near Him and unbelievable highs that leave us standing in awe. I'm crazy for His blessings. I am still in shock that He called us to adoption this year and provided every step of the way doe it! Every year I learn to expect more from our Lord, and evey year on this day I find I have more to be thankful for!!!!!!
