So i have been giving it a lot of thought lately, about the month of November with Thanksgiving & the days of thankfulness. Yes I too have so much to be thankful for. I know theres atleast something im thankful everyday for, maybe somedays more that others!
so I know im a bit behind- but im catching up!
NOVEMBER 1- I am thankful for how well we are healing, or should i say greiving. Im not sure that we will ever heal, the wound will just not be so raw. 5 months have passed since Clayton was born & 4 since he flew away with the angels to heaven. It hasn't been easy, but the pain has eased by looking ahead to our future with a smile & remembering the past with a bigger smile! because without the most devistating loss of our life, Clayton, I would not realize the beauty that is waiting for us! Life is beautiful, you just have to look for it.
NOVEMBER 2- I am thankful for Marcus, I didn't realize how wonderful he was ( ha ha, im not trying to be a cheese ball :), really until we spent 26 solid days together, fighting for the same cause. To save our son & to love him forever. I realized he had way more patience than i did, he changed diapers like a pro, he always new the right thing to say to calm me down & still does. But most of all, he had the strength & courage to cry with me, when we both needed it & for that I will forever be thankful.
NOVEMBER 3- I am thankful for our friends & family. I am not sure where we'd be without them. They have given us so much love & support. I am thankful for the kind words & encouraging quotes, always at the perfect moment, when i need to be reminded of how much we're loved! I am thankful for everyone who hasnt experienced the crushing loss of a child, but i also am so thankful for the ones who have. Their words calm me & let me know, it will be ok. We will survive this. I am thankful we are not walking down this road alone.
