I am so very tired. But I can honestly say I have never been happier. I feel very fortunate. My husband has a job that allows me to be able to stay at home with my two precious boys. We have extremely supportive parents on both sides that support us in every way possible. We have wonderful friends, both old and new who bring so much to our lives. We have a beautiful house that is warm and our safe place. We have two of the most adorable, sweet little boys in the world and they are safe and healthy. We are all safe and healthy.
In trying times it is so hard to focus on the scary and the negative. I think it's atrocious that banks are giving their CEO's bonuses and adding charges to it's unemployed customers. While Bob has a job so far it is entirely possible that budget cuts could affect him. And it's hard not to think about all of the kids out there who just don't have enough. It forces you to really look at your life and take notice of what you do have.
And I feel like I have everything. Everything that really matters.
Great post. Thanks for making me take a moment to remember how truly lucky I am.
ReplyDeleteVery true, Karen. At any moment something could happen to any one of us to change everything. We have to remember what we do have and be thankful for that.
