With all of the stress and upset going on in my life right now, I wanted to take the time to think of the things I am still thankful for…
1. My husband has a decent paying job. It isn’t the best one, nor is it one he wants to be in forever, but right now it’s paying the bills and keeping us afloat with a bit left over.
2. My mother has always been very supportive and willing to go out on a limb for us, even if it meant sacrificing something of her own.
3. My two very healthy children. When I stop to think of all that can go wrong during pregnancy, child birth and the first few months of life, I can’t help but to weep with appreciation and relief that my babies are healthy and strong.
4. My husband. Despite the ups and downs, he has been so supportive and loyal and there for me and for us from the very beginning. Daniel, I love you.
5. My own health. This comes secondary to the health of my children, but I am grateful for my own, so that I can be there for them in all ways, all the time, without dealing with any issues of my own.
You are very lucky, even if the housing situation is stressful right now. You’ll pull through.
