'Tis the Season to be Grateful

I believe the Christmas season should be a time of selflessness, giving and being grateful for the things we have, most importantly friends and family. I think sometimes people lose sight of the things that are really important to them and get caught up in day to day activities and situations. Giving should be personal. We should give from the heart. We should be thankful for all the kind things that people do for us, the gifts we receive, and all the things that we have and don't have.

This has been a week of ups and downs for us. Wednesday night, I had an enjoyable night out with the twins Mom's. Yesterday, Chance crashed at daycare with a 44. This blew our minds, especially the teachers. One minute, he was smiling, the next he lie on the floor out of energy - literally. Luckily, we acted quickly. Today, Chance was 387 after his nap and needed an extra insulin shot. Tonight, I saw Jonathan Byrd, a favorite singer song writer while celebrating with a close friend that she was done with radiation treatment. Done with treatment, but not totally free of her breast cancer ordeal. I am thankful though that her treatment is going well and she is alive. I am thankful that I have two wonderful sons. I am thankful that I am their Mom.
