Days 353 & 354

My thankfulness for yesterday is actually a bonus for the day before. Tuesday night was Giovanni's Christmas program for his preschool. It started by getting him in his costume, which was not exactly fun, but not as bad as I thought it was going to be. The next thing was getting him to keep it on, and then stay in the room with the rest of the kids. I was finally able to head out and find my seat with the rest of the family so we could watch. Giovanni began the program by crying - which was so sad, but I knew he would stop soon. And he did and then immediately made a break for the back of the group. It was really funny to watch him, and he didn't disappoint. He crawled around, went to the back of the little inn they had made, and then popped his head up to look out the little window. The poor kid who was playing the innkeeper had no idea how to handle him crawling around. Then he walked over to the drums to have a look, then he tried to make another break for it. They finally exiled him to the front on the stairs right next to a teacher. It was entertaining, and as stubborn as that kid is, I wouldn't have him any other way. It's a tough world out there, but I know my precious Giovanni is not going to take any crap from anybody and he is going to stick to his beliefs no matter what. I'm glad my mom was able to come down and witness the spectacle that was Giovanni.
Today I am thankful for my amazing husband. It is his birthday, and even though he had to work, I hope he had a good day. I can't believe we starting dating over 7 years ago, and now we have three amazingly beautiful children together. He is my rock, and he works so hard for us. I am thankful that God put him on this earth and brought him into my life. I don't know what I would do without him. Happy birthday, Alfredo. May this year be the best year ever for you, and may you spend many more wonderful years on this earth with me. I love you!
