Today I learned…
…that very small children can understand death as a happy
thing.
Today I am thankful for…
…the adorable conversation I had with my 2 year old niece
about how Jenn Friedman is HER friend and not MINE. Hahahaha.

Day 132: Gifts + Mother's Day
Today I learned...
...that Rick will benefit from some of the graduation gifts I received from others. Thank you!
Today I am thankful for...
...time with my mom, my other mom (mom's best friend), and my nieces. That's what Mother's Day is all about: being with the 2 people who are mothers to me and being with the 2 little girls who make Mother's Day less painful because I can't have children of my own.

Day 61: Compromise + Family Time
Today I learned...
...that compromise always exists.
Today I am thankful for...
...dinner and laughter with Rick, my parents, my brother, my sister-in-law, and my little niece. That little girl is highly entertaining. She sang, she danced, she read us books, she counted, she recited her ABCs, and she made us all laugh. Only in this world for 2 years and she's a bundle of hilarity. :-)

Day 33: Driving Ease + a Magical Day
Today I learned...
...that driving in the car with a really good friend makes driving to new places SO much easier.
Today I am thankful for...
...a magical day of adventures with my dear friend Jenn. She came to see me via bus, and from the moment I picked her up at the bus terminal, I was giddy. We had a day of fabulousness, which includes her meeting all of my family members - every one of them! She met Rick, my mom, my dad, my brother, his wife, my little niece, and even my Mom's best friend - my other mother - Barb! And of course - she met Juice and Tumbler! Many good talks and hugging and squealing and smiling ensued. AND THE BEST PART IS it's just the first of many visits in our future!

Day 19: Teamwork + Niece Love
Today I learned...
...that the promise of teamwork makes a task seem significantly easier. Something difficult will still be difficult, but working on it with another person is enough to ease my worries and make me feel more confident.
Today I am thankful for...
...speaking to my little niece on the phone. It was her 2nd birthday and she had many things to tell me, some of which included: "I love you, Auntie A," "Uncle Rick is so cute," and "I'm TWO!!!" I also found out that apparently "Uncle Rick is cuter than chocolate milk," which I hear is a pretty big deal.
