November is the month for thanks and gratitude. During this time, I always see the grateful lists floating around the Internet and thought it would be an appropriate time to name the things I am so thankful for.
Today I am grateful for:
The early wake ups, which means I have kids to love.
The dirty dishes, which means we have food to eat.
The three loads of laundry, almost daily, which means we have clothes to wear.
The constant cleaning up of my house, which means we have a roof over our heads.
The chaos and loud noises, which means my kids are enjoying their childhood.
The many unanswered text messages (I promise I will get to them soon) mean that I have friends and family who care enough to reach out.
A paycheck, which means I have the ability to provide for my family.
The barking dog, which means we have an animal that loves and wants to protect us.
The feeling of exhaustion, which means that my three littles keep me busy and happy.
For Target, which means that this mama gets to participate in self-care.
