Today I am thankful for AMC which is playing one of my all time favorite movies "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." I am thankful for my DH who actually pitches in with housework. I am thankful for my DS. He is the light of my life and brings a smile to my face every day without fail.

This Morning
I'm thankful for PBS, especially Sesame Street, this morning. Every morning, PBS is there for me when DS and I get up and I just need a few minutes to myself. I never have to worry about inappropriate content and it's educational. DS loves Elmo. It used to bother me, but Elmo is growing on me.
I'm thankful for our local children's museum. It's a wonderful place. We have a membership, it's only 15 minutes away and DS loves it there. He would stay there all day if I let him. They have trains, a water table, a "grocery store," an art room, and more. It's just wonderful to have a place to go when it's to yucky to go outside.
I'm thankful for my husband's job. He works at our local hospital as a respiratory therapist. His job is stable and he enjoys it. It doesn't pay boatloads of money, but it's enough for me to stay home right now with DS. In this economy, that is definitely something to be thankful for.

Need a Boost
I'm feeling a little drained and tired. I'm not sure if it's my allergies or a cold coming on, but I need an attitude boost.
I'm thankful for DH who's done like 4 loads of laundry today without being asked. He's very good about helping with housework when he's not working. I am blessed.
I'm thankful for my in-laws (they live 2 door down from us) taking DS so that I can get some housework done.
I'm thankful for my family in general. My SIL and nephew are part of our weekly playgroup. It's wonderful to be a part of their lives and watch my nephew grow and change. My mother and father live close enough for us to visit frequently. My in-laws get to see DS almost daily and I love knowing that he's growing up seeing them and knowing that he's loved by many, many people.
Off to put away laundry!

Spring Has Sprung
Good Morning!
Today I'm thankful for allergy medication, without which I would not be functioning today. I'm also thankful for my DH who is going to the store this morning to buy me more. It's nice to not have to do it myself and take Screech along, especially when I'm not feeling %100. My DH is thoughtful like that.
I'm also thankful for pancakes with fresh maple syrup! Our playgroup is going over to the home of a lady from our church who makes maple syrup every year. She taps her own trees and everything. She's going to make pancakes for us and we get to have them with her maple syrup - YUMMY! I'm very excited.
I'm thankful for my heating pad on my bed. My mother gave it to my DH and I for Christmas. It's been wonderful. I love going to sleep on a warm bed. Screech likes it, too. Most days he ends up napping in Mommy & Daddy's bed. Too bad they don't make them for toddler beds!
Have a wonderful day!

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!
