Day 1 – Children

As I have said before I am a mom to three wonderful guys, The Sophomore, Superman and Batman. They are three of the reasons I get up everyday. Children have a way of making it all seem ok. They have an uncanny way of knowing when something is wrong, without knowing what’s wrong. My boys are no different. The Sophomore has called/texted/skyped with me several times this week, as if he knew I needed to see/hear him. The Clones, er Super Heroes tell me daily how awesome of a mom I am, even when I know I’m not.

Today I am so grateful that I have them. They give my life purpose. They make my soul sing. No other profession in the world could give me as much joy as being a mother has. (For the record, note that I said JOY and not money….just saying)

What are you grateful for today?

For the month of November as we begin to focus on the Thanksgiving Holiday, I am using this time to refocus my gratefulness for the good, bad & indifferent in my life.  For the next 30 days, I am going to post one thing that I am grateful for as a guide to keep seeing the silver linking in all that life has to offer.  I encourage you to join me on this journey.  It does not have to be anything elaborate and fancy.  It can be a simple sentence or a paragraph.  The sole purpose of this journey is to redirect any negative energy that may be trying to change your life.
