Why Grateful?

I know, I know, I sound like one of those annoying Facebook people:  "So Blessed!" ;  "Living The Dream"; "YOLO".  Those people make me want to gag.  So why am I becoming one of them?

Because I have everything I want.  Two adorable, squiggly, healthy, precious boys, a sweet, handsome husband, and the job I've always wanted: stay at home mom.  And instead of spending one more day shopping online, checking Facebook, and feeling frustrated that I'm constantly tired and have 10-20 (depending on the day) extra pounds, I have resolved to write about the things that lift me up.  Be prepared, Beyonce will be featured heavily.  Just want you to know now.


Today I am grateful for 

1.  Holding Hands

This morning D got into bed with me and scooted close to me and took my hand.  It occurred to me that in a few years, he won't do that.  I will probably get more sleep but the kisses, the cuddles, the-head-on-mommy's-shoulder, the absolute sweet soft littleness will be gone.  So I'm grateful for it today.

2.  Freakum Dress

I have this on my workout mix (of course).  Today it gave me my motivation.  Get in your Freakum Dress, get a Freakum Dress, look hot, make your man appreciate your hotness.  Got it, Bey, got it.
