Gratitude

I'm thankful for my family, who constantly remind me to be my best self. My husband who is my "patna in the foxhole," my love, and the one who always tells me to keep going when things get way tougher than I expected--Thank You. To the two littlest souls who I adore, whose simplest smile or touch brings warmth to my heart like no other, Thank You.

To my parents, whose unconditional love inspires me to make my way through this insane life, Thank You. Your sacrifices to give me the best you could, continues to inspire me to be a better parent and partner to my husband. 

To my sister, though we have our roller coaster fights, we somehow always find our way back to each other and learn to love and laugh. Thank You for loving me as I am.

To my crazy family (that includes my in-laws, too), that I love without abandon, I'm forever grateful for the support and love you give to me and my family. Thank You.

To my friends, you know who you are, I'm so lucky to be surrounded by such genuine, loving, strong, funny people. In a heartbeat, you know how to improve my mood, that laughter and time do heal all things, and for all the times you guys held my hand when I was scared to stand alone, Thank You.

But most of all, Thank You Lord for all of the above, because my life would not be complete without it. 

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and remember, gratitude in your heart will make you a better person.
