Thankful for my Munchkins

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving! But not only is it Thanksgiving it is my babies 8th birthday.

The twins are so excited and are making me drive to Toys r us tonight before they close since they won’t be open at a decent hour on Thanksgiving Day. Those munchkins are lucky I love them!!!

We have a tradition that on their birthday (since it is exactly 30 days before Christmas) they get to select one gift, anything they would like, as their present.

It’s a small thing for them and they are always so thankful for the gifts they receive but this also makes me reflect on things I am thankful for.

I am thankful that my kids are healthy and thriving despite the obstacles that we have to tackle on a daily basis.

I am thankful that I didn’t fully buy into the diagnosis that was given to Chase six years ago.

I am thankful that Alexis has always been his biggest supporter….they say twins have a special bond and I see it everyday with those two!

I am thankful for every smile, eye connection, hug, kiss and silly 8 year humored joke I’m told.

I am thankful for their being born to me.
