Being at my Mother's has made me a bit mushy in the brain, I suppose. I've had the opportunity to just watch the world for a few days and realize that life is short, way to short to be lost and concerned with things I can't change today.
It doesn't mean that the things that drive me won't still consume me but for today, I am putting those things aside.
It is, after all, Thanksgiving.
I am thankful for:
- sweet little children (especially mine)
- soft, smooshy kisses from my son
- long skinny legs
- giggles and smiles
- "Mad Face"
- chants of "faster, faster... WEEEEEE!" as we raced across the field on the quad
- my Mom's gravy
- broccoli and cheese sauce
- a warm bed
- soft pillows
- hot showers
- crisp, clean sheets
- fresh air
- clean water
- colour (and subsequently, my eyesight)
- the smell of turkey cooking
- my house
- my husband
- my family
- my health
- my brains
- my ability to say "no" and conversely, my ability to say "yes"
- seeing TroubleMaker smile
- my life
Happy Thanksgiving!
