Ten Reasons I’m Grateful

Top Ten Reasons Why I’m Grateful

1. I have the most amazing husband. He is my rock. He has always supported me through my darkest moments and never has left my side. Always can make me smile. We have so much fun together.
2. My girls, Ginger and Rylee. Adore coming home to two excited pugs. Lots of kisses and love always no matter what. Can always count on the love of your dogs!
3. Running my first 5K was a very emotional moment. Never imagined being able to achieve such an accomplishment after my health issues. Never give up! Can always do what you set your mind to!
4. Being a Kindergarten teacher is so rewarding. The growth from September to June is remarkable. Love watching my students blossom into readers and writers. Their love for school makes my heart happy.
5. Two Writing Teachers for having an incredible writing community to share and connect with other writers. Making me a better writer!
6. Shorter commute to work. I would spend at least 2 hours in the car a day to go to and from school. We moved and my hour commute turned into 15 minutes!
7. I have the cutest nephew, Julian. He is a year and a half and such a happy boy. Love seeing him and enjoying moments together.
8. Friends who turned into family. We laugh and cry together. We have so much fun together. They are very supportive and always by our side. They showed us what true family means and that you don’t need to be blood to be family.
9. Coworkers and friends who get me through tough days. Share ideas. Laugh together. Share stories. Always lend an ear.
10. Neighbors who look out for us. We had a man a few months ago walk down our driveway. Our neighbor stopped him and asked him questions. Not convinced they called the police. Turns out he was robbing houses in the area. Luckily, our house was untouched, but nice to know we have great neighbors we can count on!
