Gratitude

Today I'm grateful for:

Taking the day off from work and spending the entire day at the mall of America going on rides and spending time with Lily. Watching her laugh and saying "I'm so excited" when i told her that I could go on the balloon ride with her.

An evening spent at my sisters celebrating my nieces 31st birthday. Lily was so happy to be around my family. I loved watching my nephew pick her up and tickle her. It's wonderful to see the love others have for your daughter.

Grateful that tomorrow is picture day at Lily's preschool and I have a flexible enough job that I get to be a volunteer!

I truly felt present and happy today. Not rushed or anxious but peaceful and grateful for this day with my daughter.

Grateful and thankful for this day of rides, dipping dots, macaroni and cheese, handmade name bracelets, blues clues tattoos and lots and lots of hugs and kisses.

Thank you.
