ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT.

that is what i needed.
i got it and oddly enough it wasn't from anyone other than my kids.
they make me happy.
they make all the nights of praying that some money will show up to pay this bill or that, worth it.
they make all the stress of school go away with a smile and a hug.
they make gloomy days bright and happy.
they make me realize no matter how expensive a taste i may have they don't care if they are wearing walmart or true religions.
they love me because i am their mom.
they look at me like i am their world.
i know they are mine.
2 little miracles and 1 big blessing are all i need...dave and my babies. i can't express the thanks i have for them and if i did i would cry and overwhelming amount of tears.
i am thankful for my 3 walls. i am thankful for all the walls that hold this family together as crazy as we all are.
i am thankful for a brother who even though i may not be close with i know will always be the first phone call for comfort and advice. he always has been my protector. he was last night, he never fails me. he is stronger than anyone i know physically and emotionally. he loves his 2 girls and would give them the world if he could. i am thankful for his 2 girls. Candice was my first sister in law. she is the first and last girl that stole my brother's heart. she treats him better than i could have a imagined and that alone means the world to me. My mia. the dark haired angel. i cried when she was born, my brothers first baby. she is spunky and full of life. a beautiful little girl that we don't see enough of.
i am thankful for 2 parents that are there for me at any hour of any day. they are my best friends. i can call and laugh, cry, yell, whatever is called for. they love me unconditionally and trust me i don't always deserve it. they spoil my family rotten, they always have. my kids adore them and just can't get enough when we see them.
i am blessed to have these people in my life. my kids are blessed to have so many cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents that would do anything for them. trust me they would.
so in the end, life isn't about money. life isn't about things.
life is about family, friends, and the love they give.
and since now i know that is the case, i can't lie. i have a pretty great life!
