Some days, between the lack of sleep, the food on the floor, the endless laundry and meal prep, I can lose sight of how lucky I am. But I know I have so much to be thankful for. Of course I'm thankful for all the amazing things I have been blessed with: my family, my family of incredible friends, health, happiness. But sometimes as a mom, it's about being thankful for the small, everyday things.
So, in the spirit of the season, I'm thankful for
Balls and balloons, that keep my son occupied for hours everyday.
My stroller, that gives me a bit of peace when I need it most.
French toast, a non-messy meal Jack would eat every day of his life if I let him.
Spookie, the one thing that can always make Jack smile, no matter how sad he is.
Naps, bath time, and bedtime.
Snuggling
And, on the very rare occasions these happen, I'm incredibly thankful for
Enjoying a quiet drink at Starbucks.
Going out with Jahn, just the two of us.
Any stretch of sleep longer than 3 hours.
Going to the bathroom. All alone.
