Thankful

It's 5am..I need to get to work. Jocelyn has been up since 3:30, she was up at 2:30 as well. I love her so much. This morning I am thankful. I'm Thankful she is alive. I have a tendency to read other Mom's blogs who haven't been as lucky as I have. It makes me more grateful. I'm grateful every time she blows a kiss, claps her hands, quacks like a duck, makes the doggie sound, and dances. She is so beautiful.

Boston threw some huge fits yesterday. Over me pulling the bath tub plug, talking to the guy at the cash register, and not having the temple movie that they played at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house. I am so thankful. So thankful that he can communicate with his words. So thankful that he is thriving in a regular pre-preschool class. So thankful that he perseveres to wear his tennis shoes even though he says "their owie" and he only wants to wear slip ons. He is my Hero. I often take a step back and ask the Lord "what did I do to get to be the Mother of such an amazing little boy?" Amazing.

JT didn't hug me when he came through the door last night. He slept in the living room with Winnie. I am so thankful. So thankful for a husband that stands by me through thick and thin. So grateful for a man who's glass is always half full. So thankful for a husband who makes a great Daddy and plays and tickles his babies and gets up with Jocelyn. For a man who is back in school to help make us better off. Who goes to work every day in a very stressful position and Never complains. I love him so much and I am so glad I took a chance on him. Best deal I ever made.

Snuggles didn't get me out of bed in the middle of the night last night, but he usually does and I am so grateful for that little furball that makes me chase him around the neighborhood!

I am the luckiest girl alive.

Happy Thanksgiving.
