I am thankful that after the six hours of work I am about to leave to, that I then have five days off work unexpectedly. I will enjoy the time off even if I'll be having a little "stay-cation".
I'm thankful I am able to get together with two of my closest girl friends Saturday for girls night out. Sadly, we only are able to pull it off about three or four times a year so I'm really looking forward to it!
I'm thankful for such a funny husband who makes me laugh literally ever single day.
i'm thankful for my amazing RE and his kind and wonderful nurses.
i'm thankful for my amazing DH.
i'm thankful for 2 baby wormies growing.
i'm thankful for all the strong and awesome ladies i've met because of IF.

It empties today of its strength. ~Corrie ten Boom

Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow. ~Mary Anne Radmacher (thank you beadinglady)

SHOCK BFP 9/28/2012: IT'S A BOY! and everything is normal !!!!!!
Little A born 38w 2d on 05/23/13 and is a true miracle for this IF Vet!
Love this! I used to try to do this on IF. And then the world just started sucking and I stopped. Thanks for the perspective check.
I'm thankful for our awesome dog who makes us happy no matter how difficult life is. I'm thankful for my job and for opportunities to step out of my comfort zone. I've had some chances lately to grow professionally, and it's been good. Feels empowering! As always, I'm profoundly grateful for my husband. Couldn't do any of this without him.
Baby girl Lila born 2013.
