SO here we are...in November..the month of Thanksgiving. I TRY to be thankful all year for everything I have, but sometimes..it's hard to stop and take the time.
So I'm stopping. And taking the time.
To say what I'm thankful for. In a time where people are struggling in so many ways, I feel like I am truly blessed. Now, my life is not by ANY MEANS perfect..but I have all the basics to make me happy.
TODAY, I'M THANKFUL FOR........
My Mom's health right now. Not perfect, but she is healthy & happy. SO SO SO thankful for that.
A HUUUUUGE one is my hubby who works SO HARD for me to be able to stay home with D. Without him and his awesome job, I would not get to see all the little moments Davis has every day. Thankful.
For my baby (well, toddler I guess). Obviously. I mean..this kid is the best thing that has EVER happened to me. Yesterday, I was looking at him and was still in shock that he's MINE. Like mine forever. If I had nothing but him & my hubby - my life would be just fine. Thankful.
For having all the essential things to live a daily life. A roof over our heads, clean water, a toilet/toilet paper, a daily (well..every two or three days lately) shower, groceries....all that. Truly truly thankful.
Chocolate..glorious chocolate. Nuff said. Thanfkful.
My family. And all they are and all they do for me, my hubs and D. Thankful.
Naptime. I am so dang thankful for naptime. Ahhhh precious naptime. Thankful.
This post from Erin. I could NOT stop laughing reading the comments last night. Ok, seriously some are a little scary...but some are freakin' hilarious. Wowza. Thankful for that fo sho.
My hubby's grandpa. He had a scare this week...and I'm SO HAPPY he is ok. Love that guy.
That' s all for today. I'll be back next Thursday with some more things I'm thankful for.
Leave it in the comments - I'd love to hear!!
