My mom's birthday.

Day 3,393

Thankful for: 

It's my mom's birthday today. 

My mom. She's an incredible person. Today, on her birthday, she picked up Casey, Addy, Tobin, and Phia from school, and she brought my kids home for me so I wouldn't have to go pick them up. She's a beautiful, selfless person. I'm very thankful to call her my mom. 

I'm excited to celebrate my mom on Saturday. 

Rain. 

A cozy day at work.

Thankful for: 

A really great day spent mostly at home. 

Lots of time with Matt. 

Time with my kids. 

We all spent time cleaning today. 

I went grocery shopping with Matt. It's always fun to go grocery shopping with Matt because he likes to buy things like little apple pies. I don't think I would ever buy a little apple pie if I wasn't with him. 

A fresh new week starting tomorrow. 

The possibility of ice coming soon. I'm praying for at least one more snow day. 

Time to lay in bed and rest. 

A beautiful sky.
