Throughout the coarse of the day I've realized some very unlikely things that I'm thankful for so I just thought I'd post them for fun.
1 - I'm thankful that I now only have to threaten to put soap in my children's mouth to get them to straighten up. I don't have to actually do it.
2 - Even though I have to drag my kids out to the parking lot to go anywhere, and usually end up chasing Jameson around for a while trying to get him into the car, I'm thankful that I live closest to the street so when I come home with 2 kids asleep and 10 loads of stuff to get out of the car I can park on the street for a few mins to run everything in.
3 - I'm thankful for a 3 year old who still wears the same size diapers as his 1 year old brother so that when he has an accident when we're out, and I didn't bring him any extra clothes, I don't have to drag him around in wet clothes or naked until we can go home.
4 - I'm thankful that I have to buy so many diapers that sometimes when I buy 2 HUGE boxes I get a $5 gift card that I can then use on a pair of shoes that were clearance to $6 so I can not feel like a frumpy mom even if I didn't get to shower today.
5 - I'm thankful for parents who want to create memories with my kids instead of just give them something to make them happy, even if I am going to shoot myself in the head if I hear them tell him they love him in french and english by way of Spiderman/Peter Parker Panda Bear. (I'll post more explanation on that later)
6 - I'm thankful for a husband that is thoughtful enough to put the leftover stinky chinese food we went out for tonight, into ziplock bags before he puts it in the fridge so it doesn't stink up the whole fridge.

lol, I like those :) We just have to find the good in everything- it's what keeps us going!
You are amazing and wonderful and hilarious. Never knew you were a writer. Thanks for helping me to think about things I'm thankful for today too. You rock!
Its the little things that really matter isnt it?? I was just thankful the other day when Porter decided to take EVERYTHING off in his crib and went #2, that he didnt leave pee-pee streams on the carpet! The damage stayed to just the crib!!! Sometimes if you dont laugh at find the good in things, you'll end up crying. haha. Love this post!!
Those are pretty good thankfuls. You don't like stinky Chinese? ;)
#4 Showers are over-rated anyways, right?!
