Hey ladies! I tried to whip out a Thankful Thursday a few times over the last couple years but it seems most appropriate today seeing as it’s American Thanksgiving! My Canadian self is jealous of y’all. Anyway... Why don’t we spit out some things some things we’re thankful for!
I’ll go first!
I’m thankful for so many things. My family, my health, my IRL friends and my Bumpies but specifically
@bethennyfrankel. I don’t know where I’d be without her. She keeps me sane, strong and is ready to kick my ass from (assumably) across the globe.
Your turn. Let’s go
Re: Thankful Thanksgiving Thursday
Super thankful for the place I live. We live in the beautiful forest near a small town but not too far from a city. We have a great church family that is a super little community.
Thankful for this board too as I don't know that many people in this stage of life and I love to hear all of your stories.
I am thankful for my / DHs (extended) family. Of course it's not perfect, and we all have our quirks and issues, but all in all, I think we're pretty great, and it's so nice to see everyone we can over the holidays!
I am thankful for our care team. So many people have all worked so hard, studied and practiced for YEARS! to become experts at what they do every day. And they have all come together to work in concert in helping us get our baby (ies). I just think that is pretty Awesome, when you think about it.

I am also thankful for my returning health and my wonderful and supportive doctor. I am thankful for my very best friend, she is such a wonderful person, she is kind, funny and caring.
I am thankful for my parents. DH and I made he decision to buy a bigger house this year, well, ours sold and we months later are still staying at my parents house because we can't find anything we love. We recently made the decision to buy a rental property, which will keep us here for a bit longer and they are not only supportive, but are thrilled. As a bonus, being here helps me with being sick and missing work, plus I have so much help with the kids and preparing dinner.
I am thankful that despite the adversity of this year, I feel like I could go on and on all night about what I am thankful for.
