Thankful for...

This has been a hard year for many of us.  But I think in tough times, people tend to get back to the basics and return to a more simple life full of simple pleasures.  So on this Thanksgiving, what simple pleasures are you thankful for?

Here is what I am thankful for this year:

• All the pie that I am going to eat today.
  
• That the drought in Texas has ended - because this past summer was a doozy.
• Nutella - enough said.
  
• Netflix - because I never would have made it through my pregnancy without some distraction.
• The library - because I can read all the books I want for free and the people are so nice every time I go.
• My friends Pansy, Allison, and Leah who understand the meaning of the "guacamole" code-word and showed me that motherhood can be "cool".
• All my other friends who always make sure that I know I am loved.
  
• My family - for their delicious food, listening to my rants, and making me laugh even when I am about to cry.
• My husband - for putting up with my crazy ways, believing in me even when I don't, and thinking I am beautiful even when I am covered in blood, sweat, poop, spit-up, and who knows what else.  He is the best partner-in-crime that any girl could ask for.
• And of course, my Little B.  She was the bright, shiny light in this crazy year.  She has made it all worth while.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!
