I am thankful for Cameron’s caring soul. Tonight at bed time prayers Cameron asked if he could add something to the prayers (which is not as common for Cameron as it is for Nate). His addition to the prayers was thankfulness for everything and a request to help Nate feel better as he has been a little under the weather for the last 2 days. I love my sweet caring boy.

I am thankful that I am able to be a stay at home mom. In this day and age it is becoming a thing of the past and something that very few families are able to do.  feel very blessed to have this time home with my kids and to be able to be there for them.

I am thankful for getting to be a kid at heart especially as we are approaching the holidays.

Today I spent some time playing with Lego’s mini figure family app and having a great time. I love being young on the inside. 🙂

I am thankful for other moms. Moms who come together and support each other like only another mom can.

I am thankful for a return to a beautiful fall day. The air this morning was so crisp and the sun was so warm. It is my second favorite time of year and I love a perfect fall day like today. It was so beautiful.

I am thankful for medicine. Today Nate was saying he doesn’t want to take medicine any more, that he is tired of taking pills. For a moment this made me sad. He has been on medicine now for almost 2 1/2 years, he was 3 when he started taking them full time. He doesn’t really remember not taking them. This for a moment made me sad and then I looked at this healthy, happy, energetic, loving little boy who is so full of life and I couldn’t be sad. Know that this medication had helped to make him who he is. With out it life would be very different. So I am so very thankful for what modern medicine has given to us.

I am thankful for a day of fun. Nate went to a birthday party and then we came home to dinner and a movie, followed by goofing around and laughing ourselves silly.

I am thankful for pajama days because somedays it is great to just feel like you were close to staying in bed all day.

I am thankful for mint tea on a cold winter night.

I am thankful for the generosity of others. Sometimes we are to wrapped up in our own things to realize it is there ar to realize that people are trying to help, some times the offer is even miss understood and received as an insult but I am still thankful for those who care enough to try and help others. Thank you.
