Thankful Thursday

I am so very thankful for everything in my life. Although my health has taken a turn (today), I am truly blessed to be a daughter, a mother, a wife and a friend to so many people. Seriously. Not many people get to experience the energy of three children who are all 15 months apart. Most days are nuts, but most days are filled with lots of fun as well. I cannot believe God has blessed me with so many wonderful little gifts. The kids are all so unique and gifted in their own little ways. I just hope I can remember these things everyday (not just Thursdays). I am definitely trying to live life like there is no tomorrow. I hope I can instill this virtue in my kids as well. In the midst of all the chaos we call this life, I am trying to teach my kids that it is okay to stop and smell the roses, it is okay to read one more story, or it is okay to skip baths so that we can ride our bikes for ten more minutes. I am trying to live the journey and not base life on the outcome.
