Wonderfully Grateful

I have been tagged by Dana to let you all know what I am wonderfully grateful for.

This is how it came about...

So here you all go. I am going to give you the short and sweet version of it all!

1. I am wonderfully grateful for my husband M. Without him, I would not be the wife in a loving, devoted, and faithful marriage. Without him, I would not be a mommy to three of the most beautiful, precious angels that God has created and given life to.

2. I am wonderfully grateful for my own mommy and daddy. They have taught me how to love my children unconditionally. They have taught me about marriage (they have been married for 31 years!), about patience, and about never giving up when the world gets tough. These are such valuable lessons, I hope my children take the same from them.

3. I am wonderfully grateful to my oldest son. He constantly keeps the surprises coming... and the WTF reaction I have when I come home from work.

4. Yet, he still amazes me at the compassion that he has. I know very few people who are as caring, nurturing, and loving as my "mouse."

5. I am wonderfully grateful for my 7 year old daughter. Because of her, I realize what I pain in the ass that I was. And I guess I still am. I expect things to go my way when and how I want them to. Pay backs are a bitch... I am hear to tell you from experience!

6. I am wonderfully grateful for my sassy daughter whom I have taught to stand up for herself and what she believes in. I will never be sorry that I am raising a self sufficient little girl because all too soon she will be a kick ass young lady!

7. I am wonderfully grateful that my precious baby boy still likes to sleep (2 2-hour naps a day!). These are the moments that I go around and collect my sanity!

8. I am wonderfully grateful that small wonders amaze my little man.

9. I am wonderfully grateful for this kid! Without him I would be lost, I would not be complete. He is my heart!! My love, my life!

10. I am wonderfully grateful for the closeness and protection that my children feel for each other. I hope they continue to hang onto and treasure each other because they are all they have. They have no other brothers or sisters... yet!!

I AM WONDERFULLY GRATEFUL TO BE ME!!
