Day 15: Experience
What experience am I thankful for? All of the ones I actually learned something from were painful.
I guess I would have to say I am most thankful for experiencing giving birth to my Dragon at home in water. I learned that I could think through my pain and that childbirth could be peaceful. I also fully experienced the whole range of the pain scale and am now able to understand it.
Day 14: Something New
Just as I was thankful for old friends, I am also thankful for the new people in my life. My children in particular. Those four little monsters have taught me a lot about patience, love, and to embrace the goofiness. I am also thankful for my new friends. I believe there is something to learn from every new relationship. And I treasure that.
Day 13: Something Old
Hmmm. Something old? I have moved so much that I have very little in my life that is old. Maybe old friends? I have known Abigail for somewhere around 25 years and Mandy for around 35 years. I am thankful for both of them. We’ve had some fun shenanigans together. And some not so fun ones. But over all these years, we may have lost contact, but we managed to find each other again.
Then there is my husband. We have been together for 23 years and married for 18 of those years. He has put up with my weirdness and he helps to keep me grounded and mostly out of trouble. I love ya, Babe.
