Happy Day of Thanks!
Okay so It's the day after Thanksgiving and I am just now getting to wish you all a Happy day of Thanks! Better late than never right? Besides, giving thanks should be something we do daily minus the 8 course feast and the mandatory gym time you have to put in after. Ugh. Anyway, my bad I have been sick the last few days and when I'm under the weather even virtual readers need to stand clear! I have felt so blah to say the least and have managed to keep up with my toddler in the midst of Kleenex in one hand and blowing God knows what outta my nose with the other hand. (TMI?!) Seriously, I haven't felt like a needy, ailing, fragile, infected, weak, drama queen in over a year!
(It's been that long since I've been sick...shout out to Flinstone vitamins. Never too old for vitamin C in the shape of Bam-Bam)
So yea for some time now, I have somehow managed to dodge playground and Chuck-E-Cheese microscopic organisms and carry immunity armor. Finally the creepy, germy bugs have latched on and managed to attack!! Darn those rascals! Okay, enough said there.
Nonetheless, I was present on Thanksgiving and made it to sit at the dining room table and took my turn to verbalize what I am thankful for. Family.
I am especially thankful for my parents. Who created such a safe, humble, God-fearing and loving environment for me and my sisters. I am thankful for all of my 4 younger sisters. I love the close relationship, sisterhood, and friendship I have in them. I love being a part of a big family and having tons of memories to laugh about. Even the ones I cringe about. Wouldn't trade them in for the world. I am thankful for my beautiful baby boy. Who stretches me beyond any capacity I knew existed. He is more than I ever dreamed of and now I understand how my parents love me. There are no words. Just gratefulness.
There is just so much to be appreciative of in this life! Although I woke up sick, I woke up! I am still alive, still made room in my stomach for pumpkin pie, every bit of thankful that I have my family, friends and fans, aaaaaand am still taking pictures! I guess this crazy, sometimes awful, magical, beautiful life is amazing after all!
Give thanks. For unknown blessings are already on it's way. -Native American Saying
