What are you thankful for?

With Thanksgiving less than a week away, I thought it would be appropriate to tell what things I am thankful for. I am thankful first and foremost for a God who forgives me. I am far from perfect and sometimes fail at living an obedient life. My husband who means the world to me for putting up with me on days when I may not be so lovable. My children whom I probably make mad some days when they don't do the things they need to so they can be successful in life. A roof over my head and food in the cupboards. Vehicles that get me from point A to point B. My health, even though at times it takes all the energy I have to get out of bed. I am also thankful for Young Living Essential oils for giving me my life back and the ability to work from home. I set my own hours, work when I want to, and never miss one of my kids events they have! What are you thankful for?

Why is Dementia so hard?

Dementia is hard all the way around! It hurts to watch someone you love forget how to do the things they loved! Especially at a younger age! The progression rate has been pretty rapid for him! Sometimes, I have taken the simple things in life for granted! To see someone forget how to get a drink of water out of the faucet, not know how to drive or mow the lawn, forget where the bathroom is in the house he was raised in! All we can do is continue to love them, even when they sometimes forget who we are!
