Day 146, 147, and 148 of gratitude!

Sunday was Alex's 2nd birthday. I'm so grateful he made me a mama. Im grateful he's sweet, gentle, kind, and compassionate. Our lives continue to change because he's a part of it and I wouldn't want it any other way. The love that continues to expand my heart since his birth into this world is indescribable. I am so grateful for his presence. 

I'm grateful I was brave enough (for me....I used to be so afraid of everything, which really was me not trusting myself) to have him at home, no vaccinations, and having a midwife care during my pregnancy. I used to wonder if I'd chicken out IF I ever had kids. No is the answer to that. 

                             

                  

                                    

I'm grateful for Matt. During the times I feel like I'm coming unglued, he helps to hug me back together. We can stay up half the night talking for hours about everything and anything. He makes me laugh and we challenge eachother to open up and take on new experiences. Our relationship has grown so much over the last 13 years and I'm grateful for how much I've grown while being a part of it. 

I'm grateful I somehow managed to make a pesto veggie minestrone in record time today for my babe who has a fever and seemed not to be feeling well (off and on).
