I've found that on occasion I feel sorry for me and Jack lately because of how difficult our circumstances make life sometimes, (and I think part of that is lack of sleep) but I also know that we have it easy compared to some. So I'm just going to make a list of what I'm thankful for:
- That Jack can walk, run, get into things and make a mess like a little boy is supposed to.
- That he is a happy kid, for the most part anyways.
- That he can tell me when he needs something to eat or drink.
- That he is learning to talk and communicate! He has the sweetest little voice and even though we don't always understand him, he does try and I know that one day we will.
- For his hair, he has really great hair!
- That I have the ability, knowledge, and assistance to cook his meals and to find things that he likes.
- That he goes through normal picky eater phases. Because it's normal for kids to do things like that and even if it's frustrating at the time, we are always thrilled with normal.
- That I have the sweetest, most polite toddler on the planet. He says please (or "eeese") and thank you ("tink chew") even when he is upset.
- That he sleeps pretty well, he can't help that seizures wake him up, I'm just thankful that he wakes up from them!
- That I get to stay home with him and be the one to feed him, change him, and play with him.
- For boat rides!
- For people in our lives who try to be understanding and accommodating, even if it doesn't always work out! LOL.
- That I have a wonderful husband who helps out so much with Jack and around the house. And he can cook too!
- That we don't have to move yet and that Jonathan has so much time to look for a new job.
- For blankies
- And air-conditioning.
- And coffee!
