This is by far my new favorite thing to do. I will confess that this week I had to struggle to compile my letters. I am tired. Two weeks with no Lawyer and I am pooped. But ... after some quiet time I found plenty to be thankful for ...
Dear Lawyer, Thank you for giving me the gift of staying home with our children. Even a bad day with them is a thousand times better than any day I can imagine. They are amazing and I am blessed to be able to call myself their mother. Dear God, Thank you for always being there for me. I do not always ask for your help but when I do you provide it to me beyond what I could ask for or even dream of. I have found myself very weary this week and you have stood me up and given me the strength and grace that only comes from you!!! Dear Target, Wow! I was able to catch up with a dear friend with you today. She and I chatted and connected. It was fabulous and we have three dates on the calendar when we will see each other very soon. Many thanks!!! Dear Fall, you have been a gorgeous sight to behold this year. Every single day your colors inspire me. I am amazed we still have leaves on the trees ... but we do and they are amazing colors to enjoy. Dear HSM, I am speechless by you this week. You completed a literary portfolio that is sure to earn you an A+. You will be fifteen in five short days and I am the luckiest mom in the world to have you in my life. Dear WPM, You are a rock star!!! You have worked so hard the past couple of weeks at school and you are now the proud owner of your first three As. I know you are as proud as I am. You inspire me to be a better person, mother and advocate. I adore you!!! Dear MHM, Your laugh makes my heart sing. You are a great friend and an amazing supporter of your older brother. I watch you love him beyond words and encourage him to be all he can be. I am blessed to have you as my only female accessory in the house. Girls rule!!! Dear Hubs, You are a welcome sight in the bed next to me. I am so glad you are home for at least a week. Let's try for two!!
Hope your week was a good one!!
xo,
MPM
This is an awesome habit that you have acquired. Quite therapeutic I think. Have a great week sweetie!! XOXO
