Be thankful

Wow! has it been a long time or what? This hasn't gone exactly how I planned, but I'm not going to give up on it. It's getting to be crunch time and I want to have at least some of my dreams realized. I have three boys all grown, and two daughter in laws that I am thankful love my sons, and four beautiful grandchildren. I have been married to the same man for close to thirty two years and I am thankful that our children who were no angels but have turned out be sucessful men fathers and husbands, they are fairly healthy normal men. It seems like yesterday I was changing diapers and doing late night feedings. Your kids grow so fast and before you know it they are changing diapers and loosing sleep due to late night feedings themselves! You get the picture.This has been just a little hello and reminder to appericate your children and your significant other take one day at a time and enjoy every minute you get with your family. Some days are better than others and some days you don't want to end. So take a minute and count your blessings, and save that memory for later. Also let your children know you appericate them, and are thankful to be a part of their life. This is such a positive for both your child and you, and will become the reinforcement that helps shape the outlook your children carry through their life. So hug your child ,thank your child for being their self, you will be rewarded with successful positive productive members of our community. They will thank you.
