So today has had me thinking about the past week..

Back to work 13 weeks postpartum.. Stressful in it self.

New baby sitter.. Shes got three older kids and tho i admire advice.. Shes constantly made me feel like my oldest is not a good kid.. Ex hes 3 hes independent.. Picky eater.. Always testing limits with whoever cares for him..

Moneys tight even tighter with the two week hold on my paycheck for my new job.

Christmas shopping hasnt even been started.

BUT as i stuffed my face today i realized..

We all have a home of our own.

We all are healthy.

We have winter coats.

Both parents are working full 40 hour weeks.

We have eachother.

My marriage is strong.

To me i remembered that there is more to be thankful for then what i have been worried or stressed about for weeks.

We have today.. Tomorrow is no guarantee.. So as we sit here in our food coma.. 8 dollars between us both...pay day tomorrow.. Gas in our vehicles.. Bills paid.. our kids fast asleep.. Warm.. Fed .. Clothed.. diapered.. Mostly loved.

I have all i ever wanted and more.. The rest will come later.

But today..

I am THANKFUL FOR.
