Giving Thanks

Soooo, it’s almost time for that one day where we all say what we’re thankful for.  In reality, every breath and every day is a blessing.  So we should be thankful every day…we all know this.  However, there’s nothing wrong with setting aside a day to remind ourselves what we are most thankful for.

I can’t exactly show you an image of what I’m most thankful for, but I’ll try to describe it.  Most of us are thankful for our friends, those special relationships that give added value, purpose, and meaning to our lives.  Now for the corny part.  I met this guy who, quite honestly, changed my life.  In fact, He gave me life.  I’m most thankful for the relationship that I have with the very real King of Kings.  Jesus Christ, who gave me eternal life, who is present in my every day life, who answers my prayers, is my best friend and the person that I am most thankful for.

Now, my faith being the most important thing in my life, leaves the second most important thing in my life.  This would be a person too, I guess.  My second best friend, and the most beautiful woman I’ve ever known, Tasha Robinson, is the person that I am second most thankful for.  It doesn’t hurt that she’s taking part in a miracle, creating a life, our first child, Canaan Sidney Robinson.  Pretty amazing, huh?

Here’s a little bit of the beautiful woman that I tricked into marrying me and our amazing little baby bump.

This gorgeous girl and the baby in her belly are what I am thankful for.  They are my greatest blessing from my awesome God.

Most of you didn’t come here expecting a full photo-blog today. So consider this an early Christmas present!  I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.  Don’t forget to thank God!

    I love it!!! This is what I was wanting.. Thank you Cyrus for getting them on here. Thanks Tasha for posing and enduring the picture taking. Thanks Little C for putting up with us.
    Makeup, eh? Not bad. You are beautiful either way.
    I love the one of you in the green shirt. I am proud of you also.
    I must say it though… my how you have grown, Mrs. Robinson.
    Can’t wait to see you at Christmas. Calvin is actually excited to see the apartment. Maybe more curious then excited, but wants to see it either way.
    I will talk to you on Thanksgiving.

    Love,
    mom

    Hey Angela! Thanks, and Caney’s expected birthday is 08 March 2009. It was originally 14 March 2009, but she’s growing fast so they moved it up a couple of days.
