I'm ON THE WAGON. I grant you, I'm on the wagon 20 days late. But...I boarded it, OK? A lot of people I know on social networking sites (and, probably, the way these things go viral, a fair few of your contacts too) started 2012 pledging to post one thing every day that they are thankful for. I missed the boat a wee bit, but that's not going to stop me from pledging a moment of daily gratitude for the next year...I'll just finish a bit late too!
Why 366? Because this year is a leap year, there are 366 days this calendar year.
So...today, I'm thankful for my beautiful sons. The geeklings have taught me more about myself and about life, than I ever could I have dreamed when I first fell pregnant almost seven years ago.
They've taught me how to be courageous even when I least feel like it. They've taught me the immense value of the smallest gestures - a kiss, a cuddle, "I love you" and "I'm sorry". They've taught me how to love unconditionally and without limits.
Being a parent might be one of the hardest jobs, but it's also one of the most rewarding. I'm thankful today that I'm their mother.
