30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 3

I am thankful for my SON.

Oh, he's a handful, but I love him so much.  I don't think I've ever loved anyone more.  When he hurts, I hurt.  Sometimes when I feel down, he lifts me up.  When I need a hug, he is always there to provide one.  Raising a child[ren] is work.  Being a single parent is double the work.  I pray everyday that I am making the right decisions regarding him.  Most decisions I make, I ponder how it will effect him now and in the future.

With all the media reports of parents and or adults abusing(or even worse) their kids, it's just sad.  Yes, my son can irk a nerve, but I just send him to his room or I'll go to another area just to regroup.  Sometimes you have to put yourself in time out.

I don't think justice was served.  Do you?

30 Days of Thankfulness -Day 1

Awhile ago, a friend of mine told me her "gratitude" journal opened her eyes to see how blessed she was.  I know, I am blessed, however, I sometimes (when it gets hard) do think some folks grass is greener, if you know what I mean.  I decided to do the "30 Day of Thankfulness" to help get back on track, as I know my "grass" is green.

I am so thankful for SUMMER DAY CAMP!

My son attends private school and his last day of school was in May.  In fact, he graduated this year from 5th grade, so his last day was even earlier than the other students.  The county public schools last day of class was June 17.  I had three(3) weeks of pulling my hair out trying to figure out what to do with him while I went to work.  Not only am I thankful for Summer Day Camps, but I am so thankful and blessed to be able to afford to send him to camp.

What are you thankful for today?

Be a blessing to someone ...with a small donation, you can help send a kid to camp.
