Thankful Thursday - Ben and Me

Please share!

I’m sitting here, tummy full, grateful that Ben is feeling better, after a rough morning. Tom and Ben are now outside taking advantage of the beautiful weather we’re having today, raking leaves. So I thought I’d take a few moments and try to come up with a list of 50 things I’m thankful for. I’m sure there are thousands of things I should be thankful for, but don’t we all get in a rut sometimes and forget? So here goes…

1. a husband who loves me, even when I’m not so loveable
2. a little boy who thinks I’m the most beautiful momma in the world
