Thanksgiving always makes me think about all of the things I take for granted on a daily basis. After having a child and starting a family of my own, it takes on an even bigger meaning. I should be thanking God every day for my loving husband, amazing, healthy child, having a nice place to live, and more food than I could possibly need to eat. I think it is pathetic that the only time I really realize how lucky I am is when I happen to come across a commercial about children with cancer or a T.V. show about a missing child or an abusive spouse. Even that feeling only lasts a few short moments. I definitely take so many things God has so graciously given me for granted much more than I should…..Now I’m going to go cry my eyes out for no other reason than I’m hormonal and pregnant….
Now, on a lighter note, I am extremely excited about Thanksgiving! I get to eat whatever and however much I want to and not feel guilty this year!
-one good thing about pregnancy!
Happy Thanksgiving Y’all! (in my best Texas accent)
Oh, friend… What can I say, other than I miss you so much?! Thanksgiving will not be the same without you. :’(
