So feeling very emotional today…and being so grateful for
all of the amazing people in my life.
First of all my son, Kyecen is such an amazing, smart,
funny, snuggly little boy. I cannot believe that he is going to be 3years old
this month! And, he started preschool today! To big too fast! I don't know
where the time has gone but I know that he is the best thing that ever happened
to me and he makes me grateful for life every day. I am so excited for him and
all the adventures he is going to have this next year, learning and growing…and
causing trouble!
Second, my parents. They are the best grandparents in the
world! Kyecen is spoiled rotten! They are his "Best Friends"! He loves spending time with them and most of
the time doesn't want to come home because their house is more fun! But, I am
spoiled rotten too! I have free babysitters anytime I need, I can go to work
and not worry that he isn't getting the best care. They spoil my son! I believe
that over the years we have become friends, we can hang out and have dinner,
shop, or talk about life. But they are also the most supportive and helpful
people I know. They support me and let me know I am a good mom, they tell me
that it is possible to have the career I want, and they have supported me even
when I haven't made the best decisions.
I would be lost without them.
Rob. I love him. What an amazing man. He loves me. He loves
my son too. It is great to be loved, but
as a single mom to find that man that loves your kid too is the greatest thing
in the world. He is an amazing dad! He is patient, he disciplines, he snuggles,
he teaches, he loves him! I'm not sure where I thought I would be now, but I
never thought I would find this man. This has been another great blessing in my
life. He keeps me stable/sane, he wants to take care of this family we are
building, he helps me keep the house clean!
IN LOVE WITH THIS MAN!
He too is
supportive of me, of my hopes and dreams, and my crazy ideas! I would be lost
without him too!
Rob's parents! They are amazing too! I've gotten a couple
opportunities to spend time with them and have fallen in love with his family
too! (and Florida!) They are supportive of Rob in everything he does, which
extends to me and Kyecen too! The old wives tale that men marry someone that is
like their mothers is funny, but true…when we visited Florida we found that
Lynne and I are very much alike : ) and many times "in stereo" made
fun of Rob, answered him, etc…he was not happy about this! What a great trip! (I promise I will blog about this soon!) I love the beach, don't hate the weather, and I got to spend quality time with Rob's mom!
Of course, I love my job. I guess not of course, I have had
many jobs that I do not love…some that I have even not liked. But this one I
love! I love that it is in the event industry, that it is flexible so that I
can take care of my family, and most of all I love that the family I work for
has become family!
I can also say grateful for another birthday, we won't talk numbers, but grateful for another year that I have gotten to spend being a mommy, spending time with my family. Spent learning, loving, growing, and hopefully being able to share who I am and what I know with people that have learned and grown from me.
Okay, I guess I will end my rant here : ) I was just feeling
a little overwhelmed today and thought I'd share. I hope that everyone else has as many people
that love and support them and a life they feel grateful for!
So Grateful,
Mallory
