Today is a day that we gather with our loved ones and take time to not only eat some amazing food but also think about what we are thankful for, so this year while my kids did their Thankful Turkey (thanks Busy Toddler) I have thought of 1 thing I’m most thankful for each year I’ve been alive.
I tried to really push myself to really dive behind some of the basics, like family, and figure out the little things that makes me thankful for them. So check out my list of small things that have made huge impact on me this year.
- Puddling Jumping with the boys
- Getting both boys to nap at the same time!
