I know that I complain a lot on this blog, but with Thanksgiving coming up I started thinking about all the things I’m grateful for.

In no particular order, here they are:

Shabbos

24 hours to disconnect.  It’s hard, but I appreciate the time away from technology so I can focus on what really matters.

Family and Friends

I am so lucky.  I have a wonderful husband, 3 of the cutest kids around and a super supportive extended family who’s always there for us.  My friends aren’t half bad either 😉

Readers

That’s you!  I appreciate all the time you spend reading my blog and commenting when you can.

Daycare

Makes my life as a working mom much calmer knowing that my kids are well taken care of all day long.  Oh yeah, and they learn a ton of stuff too!

Yeshiva/School

I love how excited DS1 is about all the Jewish values he learns. Parsha, davening, brachos, aleph-bais, middos- all of it is refreshing to see it through the eyes of a 4 year old.

Afternoon Babysitter

I’m not sure how I’d function without her.  She treats my children as if they were her own.  What more can a working mom ask for?

Co-workers

I work with some of the most amazing and understanding people out there. I wouldn’t be able to pursue my career while being a mommy if it wasn’t for them.

 What are you grateful for?

Until next time,
Shaindy
