Grateful...

(by Mister)


While I am a constant pessimist...every once in a while I can stop and appreciate the things that are perfect in my life and stop worrying about those that aren't.  

What I am grateful for right now:
~Days at home with my little one...no matter how crazy he makes me.
~Reconnecting with some dear "mommy" friends.  These ladies helped me grow through those tough first years of mommy hood and there are days I don't think I would have made it without them.
~A baby who is eager to "make" his bed and vacuum the dining room table...that's right...table.
~The person who has clearly been cleaning out their record collection and taking it to the Goodwill.  I found about 20 new records within the last two weeks (Crosby Stills and Nash, Cat Stevens, Beach Boys, Nat King Cole and More)
~For The Baby and Mister...they are my greatest loves and I am lucky to have them.

What are you grateful for today?
