Starting Out

This is day one of my journey. I have a lifetime of bad habits to overcome. I'm going to try to post two to three things a day that I'm thankful for. They might be big things, like my family, they might be (seemingly) cliche things, like the weather and they might be little things, like the silly things my son (affectionately known as Screech) does.

Today I'm thankful for the silly things Screech says. He had a leftover donut after he was finished with his lunch this afternoon. When asked what kind it was, he cheerfully replied "A gay donut!" It was glazed. It was apparently a very happy donut, LOL.

I'm thankful for the other mothers that I'm surrounded by, including my own, my mother-in-law, the moms at my church and the moms in my local MOPS group. With every child being different, every mother's journey is different, but they all have common elements. It's nice to know you're not the only person who's gone through a situation before, and even nicer to know that you will come out the other end of it! And it's especially nice to know that your child won't be graduating high school wearing a diaper, drinking out of a bottle, sleeping in your bed, etc.! :)

Lastly, I'm thankful for the fact that my husband is such a good father. He truly adores his son and enjoys spending time with him. Right now, he's helping Screech with his potty training by reading to him while he's sitting on his potty chair.

I am so blessed. Off to give Screech a bath!
