November?!

I'm always amazed by how fast time seems to go by. It didn't used to be this way. When I was a kid, it seemed like time was just slowly creeping by. Now that I have kids of my own, it seems to be racing so fast that it's lapping me a few times. My kids are growing up too fast. I don't like it at all.

So...November. With November comes Thanksgiving. We think about all the things we're thankful for. Of course we think about those things throughout the year...but I think everyone talks about it a lot more as Thanksgiving approaches. A lot of people on facebook are posting everyday for the month of November what they are Thankful for. I don't remember if I participated last year...but I'm doing it this year. I have SO many things to be thankful for. I will easily be able to fill up all 30 days of all the reasons why I feel like such a lucky girl.

While life often throws things at us that we'd rather not have to deal with and life can change in the blink of an eye...life has still given me so many reasons to feel so blessed.

And NO MATTER what happens in life...these two amazing people will ALWAYS be at the beginning of every decision I make and everything I do in life. These two amazing people made me the person I am today...they made me a mother. And for them...I am so thankful.

And SO many more things to be thankful for...
