Thankful for..

everything i have and don't have. i feel like such a little brat, complaining and hating my job when there are SO many people out there with so much less than i have. so many people are out of work, unable to support and feed their family and i'm complaining about my job!! i have so much guilt around this but i'll save that for another post.. maybe.

for now, today, i'm thankful for all that God has blessed me with; the breath the life, legs that keep me mobile, [relatively] good health that keeps me productive and makes it possible for me to care for my child and go to work every day to help support my family. there's so much to be thankful for and though you don't hear it often in my posts, i am aware of my blessings everyday.

so cheers to this day and everyday that God gives us <3

*hubbs recently taught Luke how to toast on command. yep, our very own trained monkey :/

oh and p.s. in case you've noticed.. my kid is ALWAYS in pj's, ALWAYS! i'm almost embarrassed but honestly, if i could live in pj's i would, too ;) we only dress him in "street clothes" (hehe) if we go out in public. so the daily trips to grandmas' house, yep, in pj's!

  1. Toasting is an extremely valuable skill. Glad Luke knows it already!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    p.s. No, you weren't too late, but I posted an update right before I saw your comment. You saved me! You made it an even 150, so now I don't have to feel bad about rounding up!

  2. Girl, PJs are the bees knees! I'd live in them too (well sometimes I do, shh, don't tell)!

  3. I drool over your pics & I wish someone could teach me to take such crisp photos. No I don't shoot in auto... I've been shooting in manual. Lots of trial & error haha!

  4. thanks for the compliment mrs.f! and, do you shoot full manual or Av or Tv? sorry for all the questions, my sil is looking into getting a dslr and i'm just wondering if she can achieve similar quality photos in semi-manual. your pics are looking great, btw! really. and i won't take away credit by saying that it's because your little angle is a DOLL! but ahem ;)

  5. We taught our daughter to toast too but now she wants to toast everything including muffins and crackers. Oh well..she'll get it someday!

    And thanks for your reminder to be thankful! There's always so much to be thankful for!

  6. Well that's nice of you! I'm feeling like I'm getting worse by the day, but I know we're our own worst critics.

    I shoot in full manual. I switched over from Av mode about 2 months ago, but I felt like I got similar results in that setting too so I'm sure your sil will do great with a little advice from you!
