Thankful

I've been so caught up in the stress of life lately, that I feel like I have really lost my way and let the stress take over my life. It's like I've forgotten that I have a wonderful husband and four healthy, happy, great kids, that life is good!! Sometimes I get so caught up in all the negatives that I totally forget to be thankful for all the good and wonderful things in my life. I have this big wonderful family that I've always wanted, I'm moving..which is something I've always wanted to do, I have all of my kids here with me, what more can I really ask for. I'm going to put some extra effort in being thankful and enjoy all of these blessing that God has given me, not to stress so much over the small stuff. I know how fast life can change, I've experienced my life changing in the blink of a eye, feeling my life crumble, and my normal being stripped away from me. I'm just thankful that my life didn't change in such a way that she was taken away from me, I'm thankful that while it's hard and challenging that I get to take care of her, I get to keep her alive and thriving. So I I'm going to try harder to stay positive, to let stress consume me, to enjoy everyday I have with my kids!! No more stressing about packing and moving, it's just motions I have to go through, it's not the end of the world!!

  1. You reminded us all of how blessed we are. Hang in there, you are in the right frame of mind. I "know" how hard moving away from what you know is, but in 6 months I will ask you "Do you want to move back?" and I'm betting on the answer. This is what you want and I know how hard it is but I really think you will be happier in the long run.
