I Am Thankful

Things I am thankful for:

1. I am thankful that my daughter is healthy. When I was 5 months pregnant, the doctor found a cyst on her brain. I was told that this was actually more common than one would think, but I was freaked out. The cyst went away on its own.

When she was 6 months old she had RSV. That again, freaked me out. We were in the hospital for a week; she recovered well but I always over reacted when she gets sick now.

Other than the 2 above mentioned scares, my daughter is healthy and happy.

2. I am thankful for my family. We don't always get along but I don't know what I would do without them. I have large family, including my husbands family. We all have had our ups and downs but we all love each other.

3. I am thankful for the opportunity to be a stay-at-home mother. Not everybody has this opportunity. If my husband wouldn't of landed the job he is working now, when I was 7 months pregnant, I would be working. I would probably be working my 9-5, pushing paper around my desk, wondering if my baby girl was being treated well. So I am very thankful of this opportunity.

4. I am thankful for my husband. He is always there for me when I need him. He knows me so well. He is my best friend and I am blessed to have him in my life.

5. I am thankful for our military men and women.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
