A Year of Thanks

This weekend marks one year that I have been living with my Mom and Step-Dad Morgan. I was just thinking and reflecting on ALL that have done for me in these past 365 days and I simply don't know how to say thank you, as words or deeds just won't quite cover it. As soon as Cope left my Mom came to Ft. Drum to get me and and the dogs so we could all drive the 18 hours to GA an not to mention I was 28 weeks pregnant and had to potty a lot. Once we made it to GA my Mom helped me start my original business of making dog collars and was my biggest fan ever. Mom and Morgan both supported me in the delivery room the day Ramsey joined us on the planet. Mom stayed with me at the hospital and helped me in those scary but mind blowing first few days. They have allowed me to take over 3 rooms in their home for my bedroom, Ramsey's nursery, and my business office. Did I mention they let both of my dogs have full reign of the house and even lounge on their furniture. They cook for me, they talk with me, they shop with me, they totally support and listen to any emotion I might need to vent at any moment, and they love Ramsey so much. My mom has seen me through some major breakdowns. She also has been the perfect balance in helping me learn about mothering without telling me how she thinks something should be done. I am a better mother because of her. This has been a long year but one I am forever grateful for. I know I could have done it completely on my own but there is no way I would have come out of this nearly as filled up with gratitude as I am today. It just makes me realize how blessed we really are. I'm not sure what I've done right in my life to deserve such wonderful people as parents but I just simply say "Thank You" from the bottom of my heart. It has meant everything to me.
