Day 21: Today I'm thankful for my amazing parents, Drew and Maggie, and my awesome bro, Ethan. They have always given me more support, love, and help then I could have imagined... and now they do the same for Gwen. I love them so much and I don't know what I would do without them. xoxox
Day 22: Today I'm thankful for my husband. My partner-in-crime for over 11 years now, I know I wouldn't be where I am now, or who I am now without him. He is supportive and loving, and I'm lucky to have him in my life.
Day 23: On this grey, rainy day I'm so thankful for my little sunshine, Gwenivere. I never knew how much I could love someone until she showed me how full my heart could feel. I only hope that I can be the Mama she deserves, because she is the best daughter anyone could have.
Day 24: Today (my last day of thankfuls) I'm so grateful that this month, and specifically this day, have given me the opportunity to reflect on how blessed I am. I am blessed, lucky, and so thankful for all the people/things I have in this life. And its good to spend a few weeks every year recognizing that. Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope your day, and your lives, are as blessed as I feel mine to be.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
