very thankful for today:

healthy, happy, thoughtful, spirited, compassionate little boy, who knows right from wrong and almost always chooses the right, is respectful and excited about the smallest things in life.
sweet, round, happy, easy going baby girl who loves to snuggle and play, observe and listen, imitate and also be herself.
getting-more-organized-every-day home.
friends who become my family-away-from-family.
my real family.
ability to see when someone needs help and the strength, despite everything, to offer it.
vacation in less than a month and the ability/freedom to have one at all.
breathing room and its community, its lessons, its showing me that a dream can be a real thing.
clean laundry, good wine, new book with amazing writer, soft shoes, firewood, new shampoo and

cozy bed.
