Giving Thanks
This year we hosted our first Thanksgiving. My dad, my niece Tristan, Aunt Christina and Uncle Bob visited us. Hosting was such a big job that I think we overlooked taking the time to reflect on all that we have to be so thankful for. So, here's the post-Thanksgiving list of some of the things we have been blessed with.
a beautiful, spacious house
an active, smart little girl to share our lives with
our jobs
the special bond we have as partners, friends and confidantes
a new little life we'll get to meet in April
our wonderful friends and family who support and love us just the way we are
though we grow older we continue to be in good health
I'm really looking forward to Christmas this year. This is the first year our family has been able to have a regular size Christmas tree. It's up and it's decorated. I can't wait for Christmas day with Ava. This year it'll be just the three of us enjoying the day together.
Until then, I'm going to keep reminding myself of all I have to be grateful for. I hope you and your family have a joyous holiday season!
