Day 2 - Giving Thanks

Today, on day 2 it is only fitting to give thanks to my son, Nathan, for being the bestest (yup I said bestest), most awesome chicken ever. While Nate has his short comings (cough, lack of eating) he continues to amaze me each and every day he wakes up. He is stubborn and smart and attitudey and awnry and boy oh boy has he become best friends with time out lately but he is the ABSOLUTE.BEST.KID.EVER.

He has taught me more in these 2.5 years than any school ever has. For instance, he taught me that my patience can be tested more and more each day until the point of breaking. He taught me how infectious laughing is and he has the best belly laughs ever! He taught me how simple life could be and sometimes you need to forget everything around you and sing some Mickey Mouse songs (or Bruno Mars if we are in the car...yes he LOVES Bruno!). I am thankful for every day that I have with him!

Day 1 - Giving Thanks

So I noticed that a few (ok a lot) of people on the book of faces were doing the 30 days of thanks. I decided to jump on the bandwagon as well. While some posts will be serious, others will be quite cheeky. None the less, they will all be things I am thankful for.

To start off day 1 I am going to give thanks to my hubby, Mike. In the 9 years we've been together I can't begin to express to you how happy you make me. When I envisioned my future, I saw being married, in a house of my own with a kid or two running around. All I needed was my guy and you are it. Thank you for doing what you do and working hard so I can enjoy being a stay at home mom with Nate. We love you.
