Life through my eyes......

"Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes to simply be human. Maybe, we're thankful for the familiar things we know. And maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate" (Quote from Greys Anatomy- Dr. Meredith Grey....I love that show)
I'm grateful for.....
God allowing me to wake up this morning and for the wonderful weather outside (no more SNOW!)
the overtime that he is allowing me to recieve..he knows that I've been trying to save and pay off things and I won't complain about how the extra money is coming in :)
the moments that I talk with my nephew..I love how he rambles on (sometimes I don't understand him), but he's growing up so fast and I cherish each time I hear him say I wuv you too auntie.
today being hump day...Lord knows I'm ready for the weekend....nothing serious planned other than folding laundry (no LadyNay I haven't done it yet lol..why was I gonna call you the other day lol) and going to the movies with my suga
each of you...leaving comments and helping me see that I'm not buggin, I am allowed to think but I shouldn't overthink. You dont' know how much that meant to me, if I could give each of you a hug I would....so I'll just give you this thank you instead.
recognizing that God has blessed me with someone special and I'm allowed to be happy, I'm allowed to wonder but I shouldn't punish him becuase of what others have done...I prayed for someone attentive and caring and that's what God has given me :)
my little sister having another baby boy...she's due in April and I pray that he comes out healthy as his big brother
my excitment at being an auntie again..not like it stopped but you get my drift lol
my parents who are resilent, weaker people would crush under the everyday pressure that they go through. They dont' know how special they are to me, I pray that I'm just like them when I grow up :)
going to the BEAN in April to see one of my blogger buds MISSY!!!!! WHOOOHOOO I can't wait
my middle sister who wants to be my twin LOL, she is a character, but I love that she loves me so much..lots of folks can't say that about their siblings
my brother and niece who is getting so big, I can't wait to see her and attack her with kisses and a photo shoot
my baby....who makes me smile even when he's not around. Who makes me look forward to waking up with him beside me, who makes me want to come home and cook dinner when I know he's coming over, who makes me realize just how wonderful I've got it. We are growing into something wonderful and as someone commented I just need to enjoy the ride :)
