Ten things of Thankful
I was so excited to see that I didn’t miss the link up for Lizzi and the gangs TTOT! I started to write mine last night and got one sentence in and fell asleep. I honestly could fall asleep sitting up lately and I did that a few times this weekend. So without further ado a very quick recap of my thankfuls.
I’m thankful for the start of school for my oldest and preschool for my youngest. I’m excited to see that they’re missing each other and have lots to share about their day.
I’m thankful for the look on my youngest son’s face when I go to pick him up at preschool. He’s so excited and comes running out the door with his craft in hand.
I’m thankful for great friends who help you up when you’re faltering. And all they expect is a thank you and your happiness in return.
I’m thankful that my son had a great follow up with his sleep specialist. The medication he’s been on has shrunken his tonsils, and we’re one step closer to finding the cause of his sleep apnea.
I’m thankful for the ability to read, research, and absorb medical information. More times than I can count I’ve been told by these professionals in my son’s care that I’m a wonderful advocate for him. That love of reading and retaining information was ingrained in me by my Mom.
I’m so thankful for my Mom’s love and guidance and even though she flies with the angels her influence touches my life daily. I recognized her birthday on the weekend and how my deep love for her always shines through.
I’m thankful for the beautiful sunny weather we had on the weekend. It was wonderful to have that one last taste of summer before the fall chill returns to the air.
I’m thankful for the beauty of the fall colours I’m excited to take my favourite hike by the river this week and share my pictures with you in my next post.
I’m thankful for the love of my family and friends keeping me renewed in my faith, and trusting in God for things in my life I can’t control.
I’m thankful for friends that have become family. How our thoughts mesh together in a beautiful cohesion of thoughts, ideas, inspiration, and laughter. And to see our children connecting is a wonderful moment as well.
My youngest son had sleep apnea as a baby–that’s a scary thing! Hope you get answers soon for your son.
It’s so scary, and we’ve been doing a process of elimination for a year. Next comes the poly sonogram my poor boy has been through a lot. Thank you so much for reading and your kindest Kristi. ?
I, too, have a great deal to be thankful for. Most importantly my wife and son; my family and friends; my life, in general!
Like you, I’m thankful for my ability to read. I live in fear of losing my sight (I’ve worn glasses most of my life), and never being able to read my favorite book again.
Thanks for this lovely and wonderful post!
Thank you so much Michael for reading. Like you I have glasses or contacts and if I couldn’t read I’d go into hiding. My thirst for the written word is insatiable! ?
