In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy path. {proverbs 3:6}: someone i am thankful for

When I saw this November photo challenge on Pinterest I was spontaneously inspired! What a perfect way to work on my photography while keeping my blog regularly posted! :) It was perfect. This is the list of things to find and photograph that I am thankful for. When i looked at the first one I could only smile. How in the world am I supposed to pick A person I am thankful for?! You guys, I have been so incredibly blessed with nine siblings, six sister-in-laws, eight {and counting} nieces & nephews, two wonderful parents, grandparents, and countless aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends! Tell me how am I supposed to pick just one person I am thankful for?! They are ALL so special to me!

But as I am to pick one, according to the list, I immediately thought of Joel. Joel means so much to me! I'm not sure what we would do without him around here. The thought of the Lindberg household having no sons around on a daily basis is simply preposterous!!! God knew what He was doing when he planted Joel between us girls at the "end." I love you so much Joel Thomas!

Joel tends to find ways out of the lense of my camera so it was a perfect excuse to get him outside and dressed up for a picture! Definitely overdue! :) He is growing into such an amazing young man! Thirteen already! He is nearly as tall as me and already past up Hannah and Mom!
