One of the blogs I follow decided to write down 5 things each day she is thankful for each day until Thanksgiving. I thought this was a great idea. Although I am not motivated enough to do it each day... I thought this would be a great post. I have so many things to be thankful for, even though some days, it is hard to think of anything.
Things I am thankful for:
1. That Jayson and I both have wonderful jobs. The way things are right now really suck for most people. No matter how much we complain about our jobs, we are very lucky to have them.
2. My wonderful husband... no matter what I throw at him, after a bit of convincing, he always cooperates. He is such a supportive and involved husband/daddy. He is always willing to give me a break from the crazy baby and watch Layla all weekend when I have my inconvienient classes. (although he always says, "WHY do you have to take more classes, I don't understand!") He loves Layla more than anything and that just makes me love him more than I did, which seems impossible. I thank god daily that he led me to this wonderful man. I guess he really does have a master plan.
3. Buster and Oliver... even though they are mainly a big pain in my **s, I love their smashed faces. Jayson and I have felt so much sadness lately for our poor baby buster... she won't be with us much longer. But, I am thankful for everyday I have left with her poopy butt.(tear)
4. Layla... I cannot describe the love I have for this little monkey. She makes each day worth living. Anyone that knows me, knows how much I HATE mornings, but all the grumpiness goes away when her sweet smile is one inch away from my face, with an expression that says "wake up mommy lets play!" I am thankful that god gave me such a blessing. I cherish every moment I spend with her, she entertains me continually. I could go on for pages, but I guess what I am trying to say is...I love you little one.
5. Family. They say it takes a village... our village is absolutely the most wonderful in the world. I cannot express the gratitude I have for my support. So to you, wonderful family, a million thank you's aren't enough. I love you all so much and I don't know what I would do without you.
Happy Holidays and let's all be thankful for the wonderful blessings we have.
