I am thankful for what fills my heart...


This Thanksgiving... I am thankful for my wonderful husband George, who puts up with my mood swings, drama queening, and depressions... He is my rock, my hero, my best friend and my knight in shining armor... i am thankful that we have been able to build a home together and welcome my mother and my niece to live here with us in our shiny lower middle life... and that our real home is in each other's arms...Which comes in handy when you are moving 1000 miles from that home you've built to re-build... another. I am thankful for my incredible memories of my father and sister who have left us too young... I am thankful for my family... My Mom, who although she tends to be a food pimp, supports me in all my endeavors, My Mother-in-Law who has accepted me and loved me like I was her own child, My Brother and Sister-in-law who have blessed us with the 2 most amazing nephews on this Earth, My niece who reminds me of my dorkatude whenever I feel hip and with it, and my BOOBfriends who keep me honest, laughing, on track, texting, facebooking, trying new things, and feeling loved and respected... no matter how many cupcakes it takes to get through the day... In conclusion, This Thanksgiving, and every other day, I am thankful for what fills my heart, instead of what fills my belly... I love you all.

  4. Well written, I really like the idea of focusing on what fills the heart instead of (just) the belly.

    BTW, you looked very smoking hot sexy in your Halloween costume. George is definitely getting paid back for being a supportive husband!
