Yesterday I am thankful I got the reminder that no matter how crappy my day starts out, I still have so much to be thankful for. I found it kind of ironic that on Thanksgiving I started out with one of the worst attitudes ever. But, I was reminded throughout the day how much I have to be thankful for, and that I just needed to get my act together and be happy. I am so blessed to have such an amazing family, both through birth and through marriage. I am surrounded by love and happiness on a daily basis and I am grateful for every single person God has brought into my life. Sure, we get annoyed with each other, but we're family and we move on. I am blessed beyond my wildest imagination and I am so happy that I am learning to let go of things quicker and to just be content.
Today I am thankful for family again. I got the opportunity to just hang out today at the house and I loved watching the kids interact with everyone. The kids all have such beautiful personalities and I enjoy seeing all of them, especially Donovan, interact with the family. I get a huge kick out of Donovan and hearing him talk to everyone and just be his happy, social little self. He is such a sweetie, and I am so happy that we are surrounded by people who get so much enjoyment out of all of my kids. I am thankful my kids are surrounded by people who love and care for them, and am grateful they have the opportunity to grow up close to their extended family. I didn't really get that chance, and I am so glad my kids will look back and have memories filled with grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
