I really admire the bloggers out there that have taken advantage of NaBloPoMo or just the month of November to post daily on the things that they are grateful for. I was planning on doing another Thankful Thursday post yesterday and forgot. So, I decided this morning that I am going to do a countdown to Thanksgiving for the next week and post on things I am grateful for. Hopefully that will make posting simple enough that I'm able to keep up the post a day through the packing.Above all, I am grateful for Will and Liam and the blessing I have of being an eternal family with them. I know that I am blessed to have a husband who loves me and our son as much as Will does. He is constantly showing us how much he loves us. He gets up in the night with Liam. He rubs my feet. He works hard. He has a strong desire to continue learning and growing. Will has taught me a lot in the three years that he has been in my life. He has taught me about forgiveness and patience. He has taught me how to be a better person and helped me see that I am a good person.
Liam has added a whole new dimension of love and gratitude to my life. It is overwhelming and amazing at the same time. I am learning a lot from him every day. The biggest lesson I have learned from him (beginning from before he was born) is to beware of and prepared to adjust my expectations. I'm grateful for that lesson that could be applied to most areas of my life but is much more easily seen in watching him develop and progress.
