have you ever just been thankful? thankful for family, amazing friends, sunny days, long blond hair, and stunning blue eyes. well, i am. this has been the weeks of weeks, let me tell you. stress seems to build with me until i explode and not in the crazy way you might be thinking. my body gets sick and weak and sore. it tells me to stop and take a breath and threatens me if i don't.
today was that day. it was long and exhausting, muscles ache for no reason at all. my eyes are twitching from being open to long. i can't sleep because my mind is to busy. however, i am thankful. whiny, but, thankful.
i am thankful people stared at me everywhere i went today because i can't push the double stroller we have straight EVER. they stared because the 2 year old was screaming and her brother was trying to slap her while harnessed in. they stared when she sat by herself eating pizza at target, acting like she had no idea who her mother or brother were. they stared while i wrestled 2 very tired, worn out. babes into their car seats. no matter how many stares i got today, they were staring at 2 WONDERFUL kids, my kids.
i am thankful for friends and a wonderful sister in law. they talk and calm me down, they let me vent. they let me give them advice. they make me want to be a better friend and mother. they help me through my hard times and support me.
if you know my sis in law, amy, she is delightful. will always make you laugh, a great mom, wonderful wife, a good friend. yet, she will never tell you...dave and i adore her as do most people in her life!!!
my friends, oh where do i start. i went through a phase where it seemed i had pushed every friend i had out of my life. i am a loner in that sense, i guess. once you realize how boring life can be without friends you tend to snap out of it. i have amazing friends, they worry about me and aren't scared to show it. they will talk to me just because they know i need it, while they walk 3 miles with their dogs and i lay on my couch. i get texts at 11 pm saying whats wrong, i am all ears tell me everything. when i know they have to get up with 2 little girls in the morning. they will bug me when i tell them nothing is wrong. then, tell me everything is ok and as long as i have faith, things will work out. they are great examples of great people and i wish i could share a piece of them with all of you, but, i won't they are mine.
the hubs, i don't need to go on and on about him. he is AMAZING and i am definitely guilty of not giving him enough credit at times. he loves me craziness and all and that is all i need.
life is good. i am surrounded by good people who i love dearly and crazy them, they love me back. honestly, what more could you ask for.
