Thankful Thursdays

I feel like it's so easy to take life for granted. The small moments turn into big events that leave footprints on your heart. But when you're a lucky person, like most of us are, you tend to forget some of those smaller moments.

Not because you want to. But it's human nature, you know?

We get busy with life. We live through so many small moments that we try so hard to bookmark in our brain, but we end up only saving the biggest moments in our memory bank.

Like weddings. Or the birth of our precious babies. Or the times that we felt truly alive.

So every night, The Husband and I make a list, separately, of five things we're grateful for that day.

On The Husbands first day, one of his items was "avocados". I may have fallen in love with him for stating something so innocent, so sweet, so real.

It's just our time to be thankful for what we have. For what we're capable of striving for. For what we don't yet have that G-d feels we don't deserve just yet.

There's always something to be thankful for.

Always.
