Seems fitting to post my gratitude this time of year. Lately I feel I am bursting with gratitude for my life. This morning I drove my boys to school. It was a frosty morning and the car was filled with their excitement for the day. I thought about how good it feels to care for my little guys. Dropping them off to school in warm gloves and coats, homework completed, full belly's from breakfast and telling them how great they are. They walk backwards together holding up the "I Love You" sign to me. So sweet.
When I drove up to our house, it looked so warm and pretty, with frost everywhere and the glowing lights inside. It made my stomach flip to think of all of this Jon and I were able to create for ourselves. Our home, the kids inside waiting for me. If I got the tiniest of glimpses of my life right now back in the Orem High School days it would have blown my mind, I would have been so excited I wouldn't have been able to stand it! I never would have dreamed up such a life with that Jon Geertsen. Not even close. I need to appreciate where we are at, what we've accomplished and where we're headed. It would be a shame not to stop and take it all in. It seems too much for just little old me. I can't believe these sweet little kids are mine. When they look up at me with their perfect faces and bright eyes, I am filled with love and a peace I've never known.
