A Day of Bliss…

Hello loves,

Well, my intention today was to continue with features and posts sharing with you all of the wonderful things I enjoy, but alas a day of bliss took over. You know those days, the ones where you take two little boys to the grocery store the day before Thanksgiving. (Turns out everyone else thought they would get lucky by going the day before because everyone else plans ahead right?)  Hum, not so much.

The parking is jam-packed. The boys decide they don't want to ride in the cart with the extra chariot attached, ( you know the one with the great turning radius that doesn't go anywhere you push it) Nope, they'd rather walk and let you chase them all over the store, while you shop for the butternut squash that has all been purchased (until you find the last two), it's getting better…….. The littlest one finds the bakery full of fresh baked goods and cakes and decides to go for it and you dart off leaving your cart and your purse behind and just when you are about to break a sweat (mind you it is winter time) MiMi shows up to to save the day! (aren't moms the greatest).

Boy I love these days. I'm thankful for these days, the days full of life, full of family, full of joy, full of frustration, then more joy and then finally a little exhaustion. Do you know why I love these days? Well, it's simple really. For one, I'm alive, I'm kicking, breathing ,mothering, molding my children, nourishing, building my faith in God , loving, laughing, learning, dreaming and most of all I love these days because I'm ALIVE.

I'm thankful for life. As simple as a word that is, it sums up my gratitude of what and how I feel about this Thanksgiving. Everything that makes life what it is, is something to be Thankful for. No matter how hard or how tough things seem to be in this crazy world we live in, just remember there is someone out there who has it worse than you. So don't take life for granted, be thankful for what you have and keep pressing on towards the future, I know I am.

Happy Thanksgiving to you. We'll return with a special feature on Friday and then we are back in full swing Monday December 1st!
