We all know how me tend to take for granted the most important things in life. Partly because we just can't imagine life without them, we don't even stop to consider how lucky we are to have them.
This year more than most I've been reminded of a very simple truth: how lucky I am to have two beautiful, healthy -live- children.
I'm grateful for routine. For the kids getting off the bus hungry and complaining. For the dinner they refuse to eat. For the struggle to get them to brush their teeth and go to bed.
Even though I know I am extremely blessed and have a long list of things to be thankful for. Today, now, I'm just going to stick to that one. Because I can't begin to imagine life without them. Because I can't stop thinking what if it'd been me. What if it'd been mine.
