Happy thankful Thursday everyone!.
I’m thankful because of SI, I have been incredibly blessed to have met some amazing, wonderful and kind souls. One person in particular has become a close friend who I cherish dearly, I’m so incredibly thankful for her.

I am late to this but I am thankful that my friend helped me out this week when I needed it. I am thankful my teenager enjoys watching a show with me and enjoys a cuddle still! I am thankful a friend invited me to a meet up this week and I’m going to do my best to attend. I am thankful that a small gift was given by an acquaintance - it was random and a lovely thing to do.
You can’t go over it, you can’t go under it, you have got to go through it. Michael Rosen was talking about Bear Hunts but it’s relevant to cheating toads too.

Happy thankful Thursday everyone!
I’m thankful that I’m home after travelling to visit H’s family, there’s no place like home, clean, fresh, warm and there’s something to be said about climbing in your own bed after a nice long soak in the bath, crisp clean sheets and snuggling up to watch a movie. Heaven.
I’m thankful for my SI friends who are just amazing.
I’m thankful that I get to go away for another week shortly, just my H and I, I can’t wait.
I’m thankful that our boys are both healthy and happy.

Haaaaaaaappy Thankful Thursday Everyone !!!
WOW...it is hard to believe it has been over a MONTH since I last wrote on here! I have been spending time with new grandbabies and getting ready for ANOTHER grandbaby...so it has been a pretty busy time. But how rewarding it is too...and I am so THANKFUL for these precious babies . While I was back at our house...I even had my ADULT grandkids coming over and spending a few nights with me...HEAVEN!!! I am very THANKFUL that I can spend quality time with all of these true GIFTS from God !
My H has been very gracious over all of this...and is such an AWESOME Paw Paw !! He doesn't get to see the grandkids as often as I do...and it seems that he is now their favorite grandparent between the two of us!! Some of the grandkids have actually said, "Hi Maw Maw, where's Paw Paw"? I maybe COULD stay away a while to see if they might miss me...but then I would miss them too much!!
I realize how different things could be if my H and I had chosen a different path instead of R. My ex-husband has NO relationship with the biological children/grandchildren from our M. He CHOSE that path...and I am so THANKFUL that my H CHOSE to step up and be the "Dad/Paw Paw he didn't have to be" with them . My XWH had other biological children with other relationships but he has also chosen to alienate himself from them too. WE however have chosen to include them in our family circle...and we are very THANKFUL to have them as part of our family !! Biology doesn't make a family...LOVE does .
I remember thinking how sad things were for my children after my WXH left because no one else could possibly love them like they would a biological parent. I was very THANKFUL to see that I was WRONG in that aspect !! I was so torn about moving forward alone way back when...but looking back...it was the BEST decision I ever made . I was also torn when Dday happened in my 2nd M...but I am so THANKFUL I decided to move forward together with my H...another BEST decision I made!!
Life is what we make it . I prayed about these decisions and trusted God to guide me...and as always...He has NEVER let me down ! THIS relationship with God is the BEST relationship I ever had...and I am so THANKFUL that He remained faithful to me even after I lost my faith in Him.
This may be my last Thankful Thursday post for a while...the baby will be coming any day now !! I am so THANKFUL to have this wonderful site with so many "family" members as well...and I thank all of y'all for your prayers and well wishes toward this upcoming miracle !!!
A "perfect marriage" is just two imperfect people who refuse to give up on each other.
With God ALL things are possible (Matthew 19:26)
I AM happy again...It CAN happen!!!
