Today I had waves of emotions, joy, love, pride, irritation, annoyed, laughing, anger, and crying. With all that said, I am grateful for this day and all the blessings that came my way. This picture is part of my laughing and joy of the day, Orion and Sirius, my daughter’s sugar gliders. They are six months old and love playing and jumping on me like a tree.
Also here is my moment of pride. My stepson and daughter shoveling the neighbors sidewalk and driveway and me stalking their progress upstairs.

Let’s jump into reasons why I am grateful. Just a reminder I say my list out loud and with my mind at the same time while laughing and staying in a state of joy for everything I am grateful for. I know I am repetitive, but I always feel I’m sending out my energy to everyone/thing I write/type down. When I’m saying my thank you’s I vision the person I just explained why I am grateful for and try to look at them as I say thank you. Just letting you know what I do. You can do you.
I am so blessed and happy for being a mom because of how I get to love, help, and be there for my kids, and for all the laughs I get to have, even if it’s about farts. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
