Summertime has got me slacking on my blog. Oh well, what are you going to do? So, since I have a lot of days to be thankful for, I will keep this as concise as I can.
First of all, I'm go thankful we got to go meet the newest member of our family: my baby sister's baby, Lucy Elizabeth. She is tiny, sweet, precious and looks just like her daddy! I'm glad Alfredo, the kids and I were able to make the trip over and back safely to get to meet her. I can't wait to see her again!
I'm also thankful for the wonderful Fourth of July we got to spend with family. Alfredo's family all came over to the house and we just hung out and ate food. It was delicious, and nice to sit and relax and visit with everyone!
These past few days I am also very thankful for the basic things that I often take for granted: we have a van and a car that works, we have three beautiful and healthy children, we have a roof over our heads to shelter us and help keep us cool, we have a yard for the kids to play in, and I have a computer to do my homework on while keeping and eye on the kids.
I am truly so thankful for everything that I have been blessed with. I know sometimes I focus only on what I don't have and lose sight of all the amazing things that I have in my life. I really am a very blessed person and I am still striving to be more mindful of what I have and to express my thanfulness and gratitude for all that I have.
