Much to be thankful For

Every day in November people post to their Facebook status what they're thankful for. I'm not a fan. One, I don't have time to do that every day. Two, I have so much to be thankful for that boiling it down to a sentence a day seems wrong. I am blessed beyond what even I can fathom sometimes. I have an amazing family and friends, a warm house and bed with clean water and more food than I know what to do, and luxuries that many in the world have never heard of. 

But today I was in a car accident (I'm fine...promise), and it really reminded me just how fortunate I am to have all these things. Yeah my car is messed up, but who cares? I'm still safe. Luckily A wasn't there as I can't imagine what the 1.5 hrs it took to get it everything resolved. But more importantly I can't imagine how much more it would have scared me if he had been there. 

I'm shaken still, but I am again reminded of just how blessed I am. So this November 14, the eve of A's 2nd birthday, I will remember that I am the luckiest mom, wife, daughter, sister and friend alive.
