Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving

Okay, I know I'm a little late, but we should be thankful more than one day of the year, so here is my list of things I'm thankful for.

I'm thankful for my husband who has made such a big effort lately to be kind and loving and a greater help to me. I'm thankful for my son who makes me smile every morning when the first word he says is 'momma!'. I'm thankful for the essential things I have; a roof over my head and not having to live with others to get it(been there, done that!), food to put on my family's table, warm clothes to dress my baby in, a church house near by, and loads of family to support and love me. I'm thankful for books to help me escape for a few minutes a day. I'm thankful for the chance I have to be a wife and a mother. And I'm thankful for my faith that keeps my head screwed on to my shoulders and gives me strength to look at next month, next year, and the next century.

Lovely McKay Dee ER

Sunday night/Monday early morning was very eventful. My poor husband was writhing in pain on the sofa trying to convice me(or himself) that the pain in his face wasn't that bad. Tears on a man means somethings wrong in my book, so off the the ER we went. Not to Davis Hospital because ya know I just didn't want him to be butchered so we went all the way to McKay Dee in Ogden. There are no babysitters at 1:00 am so little Lukey was taken from his crib in the middle of the night.
I have the best baby in the world. He didn't shed a tear. He thought we were going on a very cool adventure and was jabbering about his excitement the whole way to Ogden. Of course he was too keyed up to fall asleep, so he was awake the entire "adventure" and about 30 minutes after he was put back to bed in the early morning.
I'm happy to report that my wonderful husband will survive his face(HA!) IF he will take care of it.
My toddler, however, now thinks that he should stay up extra late at bedtime just in case we decide to go on another exciting adventure.
