I Am Thankful

A whole day inviting us to focus on gratitude and family. Where do I even begin?

One year and so many things have changed. Last November, I was in a really tough spot and heard the words “in a year from now, you will be thankful” whispered to my heart. Too good to be true. I dismissed it. But here we are and the words could never be truer.

I’ve had some good years, but I’m in the midst of one of the most joyful seasons of my life. I’m thankful for the big pieces. My boy Rhys. Getting to share the whole experience with my best friend. Having treasured people in my life near and far away. Getting to do things I love to make life better for people.

And there’s also the littler things. The rain today and a Muppets Christmas Carol and taking advantage of my parents’ place to do Rhys’ laundry and passing time by goofing around on Illustrator and red velvet hot cocoa and looking up campsites adjacent to national parks.
