It has been a long day – well, a long week. I can’t believe it is Monday again. It is amazing that no matter how much you try not to let it happen, Monday’s still have a way of sneaking up on you.
So, since I am exhausted and we got home late from the Haunted Harvest Redo, (due to our rain out last weekend) I have decided to post a few things that made me thankful this week.

*I am thankful to have a wonderful husband who understands me supports me in whatever I am doing. Including Blogging. Did I mention yet, I am going to Blogher 2011??
*I am thankful to have a son who couldn’t possibly get cuter! His smile is my world, and laugh is my heart. And who now says “Hey Babe” to me and still calls Daddy “Bob”. Really one of the sweetest things ever.
*I am thankful to have found such a wonderful group of moms who I am lucky enough to also call friends. And while Thursday Playgroup saves my sanity, Wednesday Bingo nights remind me it is okay to be a wife, mother, and a woman.
*I am thankful to have such amazing family. My thoughts and prayers are with my father and his wife. Tomorrow is the beginning of a difficult journey. I pray the chemo goes smoothly and allows his wife to have more time to be with her family, my dad, and her grandbabies.
*I am thankful to have had “Auntie Kim” move in with us. By this time last deployment I was very literally a zombie mommy. There are so many moments I know I missed out on trying to do it all alone. Kim has been such a lifesaver, a huge help, a wonderful aunt to Squish, and a good friend to me. She has truely allowed me to be able to breath through this deployment, and feel like I wasn’t missing out on some important moments.
*I am thankful that we are almost finished with this deployment. Only a few more weeks. (hopefully) I am ready for the hubs to be back with us where he fits the best.
What are you thankful for? Have you thought about it lately?

We had a hard weekend which made me realize what I was thankful for: that my children are healthy and I can hold them every day.
