Tonight, I'm thankful for a Star Wars birthday party for the best nephew.
I'm thankful for snow in late March.
I'm thankful for winter sunsets.
I'm thankful for fancy tea rooms with the most delicious food and the most wonderful woman.
I'm thankful for family.
For date nights spent bowling with people that are both family and best friends.
For playground playing.
For birthday parties.
For more beautiful winter sunsets. And for more playground playing.
I'm thankful for Easter.
For events in our little town of Haymarket. I love living here.
I'm thankful for springtime.
I am thankful for many things tonight. For sunsets. For birthday parties. For trees. For the sweetest four babies anyone could ever ask for. I'm thankful for a new haircut. Courtesy of my parents. I'm thankful for all the good news we have received over the past few months. I'm thankful for time spent with the ones I love and cherish. But perhaps, most of all, tonight, I'm thankful to be home from the hospital with Tobin. We had to go into the ER with him today because he was having trouble breathing. But we are home. And he is breathing better. And sleeping peacefully now. I'm thankful for the love and support of my family. We were in the middle of having a birthday party for Patty when we had to take Tobin to the hospital. My mom and grandmother came with me. My grandmother paid our hospital bill. And my sister cleaned up my kitchen on her birthday, and took Adelyn home with her.
My family sticks together. We help each other and love each other and take care of each other. Without them, I would be lost in this world. I am thankful for a great many things, but tonight, I'm especially thankful for family. What a wonderful word. Family. I'm certain that without my family and without their love, my heart would stop beating.
