thankful...

happy thanksgiving everyone! what better day than thanksgiving to reflect on all the positives in your life and all that you are thankful for...

I am thankful for...

... all that I have in life and all that I am able to give
... my family - who is definitely nutty but has taught me what it is to be a part of something bigger
... my mother - who keeps me grounded and reminds me of where I came from
... memories of my father - that teach me who I want to be and what to strive for
... my friends - who are the best support system any girl could ask for, near or far they make me smile
... my sweet puppy Oliver who has taught me the true meaning of unconditional love
... my job and profession and ability to make a difference
... my health and the health of my loved ones [and health insurance, let's get real]
... this blessing that is growing inside of me - I am so thankful to be able to bring life into this world

and most of all...

... my partner, my love, my best friend - my danny j. - the one that makes everything else worth it.

happy thanksgiving.

take time to reflect on what you are thankful for, and what makes your world go 'round.
