I am thankful for:
...my healthy, happy children. They bring endless happYness and smiles to my every day. A constant source of joy.
...my husband who is the bread winner in the family. He makes it possible for me to stay home with our children. He supports me, puts up with me, is a great father, husband and friend, and he loves me...what more could I ask for?
...my dishwasher. Yup! I had sooo many dishes Thursday it was nuts. I ran my dishwasher twice Thursday and still had quite a bit to do by hand. I do NOT miss my SC house with no dishwasher!
...the ability to feed and nourish my baby for FREE... the human body is miraculous.
...my friends and family. They keep me sane and grounded, especially when life gets chaotic.
...a warm cozy house to live in. We've been provided great housing here now, and it's a comfortable place to live while we're here.
...being stationed so close to home. It's so easy to take it for granted, but I know someday the military will move us away, so I need to be thankful we've gotten the opportunity to be so close. Especially with having the kids, they've gotten to know most of their family pretty well.
...this moment. Because in the end, that's what matters... living in this moment. It's all we've got. Live in the now, not in the then. The past is the past.
Well, yesterday we pulled out Christmas decorations and got them put up. Austin has been loving it all, and really starting to get the whole Santa Claus hype. It's amazing to see it through his eyes. The look on both their faces when they saw the tree light up, it's one you wish you could file away in a memory bank to keep forever.
The holiday season is about us, and I hope this finds everyone well! Remember, just smile, and enjoy this moment.
