7 Days of Gratitude......Day#2 (Our Family)

Blessing are all around us. My parents recently celebrated 50 years of marriage. I was struck by how much they have experienced in their 50 years of marriage and 70+ years of life. As a kid my dad had to deal with the challenges of WWII, living in Germany and wondering if his family would have enough food for the family. My mom lived in Ecuador, wanting a better life but making the best of a hard situation. My parents were immigrants when they arrived to the United States and came to this country because they wanted a better life for their kids. They endured the realities of learning the language, understanding the culture and working non stop in order to live their dream. I am so very grateful for the sacrifices my parents made early on for us as a family. I am grateful for how they endured to believe in a dream and because of their determination we live that dream. What has our family done that fills you with gratitude...............
