I’m thankful I have a supportive partner. The news was unexpected but I think it has brought us together ten fold. I can be happily pregnant. (Though I am not 100% because my emotions 😭) I’ll graduate with my masters next year and my little one will be there with my husband. I am blessed and grateful.
I just lost my dad, and God graced me to carry new life,
I’m thankful for nature documentaries. My son is obsessed and while I feel bad for letting him watch so much TV, I’m too exhausted to do anything productive. Plus, it’s too hot to go outside anyway.
I’m thankful no one was hurt when a truck went down a hill and crashed into my across the street neighbor’s fence today! It scared the crap out of me hearing the breaks and crash (I work from home) and I immediately called 911. I’m also thankful that my ring video caught the incident. Now, knowing no one was hurt, I keep cracking up at the video because it’s so unreal and I’m thankful I can laugh about it. 🙃

I'm equally thankful for my supportive husband who's been taking on the evening dog walking duties so that I can go to sleep early.
Also thankful to finally feel a little nauseous. I'm sure it'll be very short-lived.
