So grateful!

I read so many posts about men not paying child support, single parents who are struggling, teenage moms, and I think that I am so grateful that I have my husband, who is NOT perfect and does stupid things but supports me and takes care of me and my little sister. 

I am also thankful that I did not get married just to get married, I waited until I found the right person, married at 38, pregnant at 39...Happily ever after can begin at any age.

What are we grateful for ladies?

I am grateful that, as older, more established people, we can afford for me to be a SAHM.   Not that my career was going anywhere anyway.

I am also very grateful for 3 hour naps and I rue the day that Charlie stops needing them.

I'm grateful for my amazing DH and my equally amazing little boy. They're my treasures.

Like you, I am grateful that I didn't get married just to get married (almost happened only months before I met my DH). I married at 38, pregnant at 38 and a mom at 39. Now, at 41, I'm grateful for my nuclear family--even when my family of origin is a challenge.

I am grateful that I have a "chosen" family that is loving and supportive.

Even though there are things that could def. be better, I am grateful for so much:

-Adrian, we tried for a while to get pregnant and I am grateful each and every day that he was born healthy and makes us so happy. If I had known this kind of love existed, I would have started having babies sooner! Sure, there are days when I just want to run screaming from the house and go to a weekend spa retreat (that sounds sooo good) but I don't regret having a child at all, not for a second.

-Our jobs and the fact that I can work part-time in a job I like and still have plenty of time to spend with Adrian (super knock on wood on that one).

-Our families. I wish we could visit them more often.

-Our health (knock on wood again!)

There are other things but these are the ones that come to mind right now.

Oh, and of course, DH. He's the sweetest, kindest person I know and a terrific father to Adrian.
