Today I am thankful . . .



Things I am grateful for this year.

1.  I am thankful for my son, who I have gotten to watch experience life through his fresh new eyes. Thank you for letting me be your Mommy.
2.     I am thankful for my husband.  He amazes each and every day, you are a wonderful father and husband.
3.     I am thankful for my family [including my husband’s family] – their unconditional love and support, has helped me in more ways than I will ever be able to repay them for.
4.     I am thankful for my co-workers and boss.  Their support this year, bringing dinners, and cheering me up was more than I could ever ask for.
5.     I am thankful for my friends (close and far).  From cards and emails, to Facebook posts, to the occasionally phone call, thank you all. And to those that just posted adorable pictures of their children or pets, thank you, as your posts helped get me through a lot of sleepless nights and cheered me up while battling cancer this year.
6.     I am thankful for my neighbors, who stopped by to check on us, or cheered us up whenever we were out and about.  Thank you for being there.
7.     I am thankful for the Doctors, who helped both my son and me this year.  Each day you have given us is a precious gift and I am thankful for the opportunity to watch my son grow.  And my therapist who has given me hope that I will have full range of motion in my arms again some day, and has given me the chance to start becoming self sufficient.
8.   I am thankful for my iPad, as it was my constant companion while others were sleeping, and when my range of motion in my arms would not allow me to do anything, I was always able to use the iPad! J
9.     I am grateful for the ability to sleep in my bed again.  After sleeping in a recliner for much of this year (due to nausea, surgeries, etc).  I am happy to be sleeping in my bed again.
10. Truly I am thankful for each and every morning.  I wake up knowing how today is another gift, and our time here is unknown.  I am grateful that I have today!


Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
