thankful

Today I am very thankful for

the number one man in my life.

As most of you know, hd was in the Peace Corps in 2006.

After graduating from college, he left for

Guyana, South America.

After being gone about four months he became

very ill. He was treated by foreign doctors,

took lots of medicine and repeatedly went to the hospital.

After another three months, he was

medically released from the Peace Corps.

This meant he could come home, get better, and return

to complete his two years of service if he wished.

It was a very rough and long seven months

but worth every minute to be where we are today.

With all this being said,

this past week ABC and 20/20 did a special

on the Peace Corps. However this special was not aired to

talk about the good the Peace Corps does. Instead it aimed

to shed light on the terrible things that have happened

to many volunteers.

So today I thank him for his service, kind heart,

and his desire to change the world, and thank God for bringing

him home safely to me.

what are you thankful for today?
