Just one of those days

I said something stupid to someone I really care about. Her feelings were very hurt. I apologized and tried to make it right. We both thought it was. Someone else stepped in and told me I was a terrible person. I was a jerk to them. It escalated. I almost lost the first person as a friend. Thank goodness she forgave me for all of it. It has been a really rough day. I'm just grateful for such a forgiving friend who loves me even when I am an idiot. People like her are few and far between and deserve to be cherished.

Thankfully, I Forgot Yesterday

I am not really thankful that I forgot yesterday. It is more that yesterday was difficult and I was not very grateful. Today has been better so far.

#3: Yesterday I was thankful for outside time. I try to spend at least 15 minutes outside every day. For my own sanity as much as for the Bean's. He needs a change of scene most days since our apartment is just not big enough for his need to explore.

#4: Today I am thankful for the Sacrament. I can't pay attention to much of church since I have to chase a squirmy kiddo around, so I have to focus on what I can and he is usually good until at least after the most important part of church.

Being Thankful 1 and 2

I am going to attempt to blog 1 thing I am thankful for every day this November. I am already a little behind the 8-ball on it, but 2 is better than 29.

#1: I am thankful that my little man does not have a lazy eye. There was some concern that his right eye might be very slightly weaker than his left. We went to the optometrist yesterday and found out that his vision is just right for his age. I'm also thankful that everyone at the optometrist was just wonderful! They all did everything in their power to help him have the best experience possible and everyone thought he was just the cutest thing ever.

#2: I am thankful for oral steroids. Bean has croup and sleeping has been a challenge. Coughing does not lend itself to good sleep. Thankfully, the doctor prescribed oral steroids to help with the inflammation in his trachea. He only woke up once last night instead of 4 times like the night before. That meant a little more sleep for me and more sleep for him.
