feeling sentimental...

I have been feeling so sentimental today -- maybe it is because VALENTINES DAY is just around the corner -- maybe it is because bobby is gone to fargo tonight and i miss him -- maybe it is because i got to spend almost all day with my cub -- or maybe it is just because that is what girls do from time to time :) looking back at old blog posts at how much our lives have changed, and just thinking about how blessed we are. sometimes i think that people just focus on all of the things they want that they don't have, that they forget all of the things they do have. here is a few of the things i am feeling sentimental about/thankful for tonight

• so thankful that Mason was brought into my life! He has changed me in so many positive ways! words cannot even express how much i love that little guy! we are so lucky that he is a HEALTHY, active, exploring now-1-year-old BOY
• so thankful to have such a hard-working, understanding, caring, wonderful husband! he cleaned the entire house this morning before he left for work! he does things like this all the time! even on days that we have our "bad days" like every couple does, i know that at the end of the day, he is the love of my life!
• so thankful that we are able to provide for our family. we both have good jobs, and although we dont always like our jobs (ok we hate them somedays, but who doesn't?!?) a lot of people would just be happy to work ANYWHERE. we never have to worry about where our next meal comes from or worry about buying Mason diapers.
• so thankful for all of the wonderful people in our lives. we have so much support and love from our families and friends!

ok, that is probably enough babbling on! off to bed, just to snuggle under the covers and watch TV. This weekend we are hopefuly going to St. Cloud to see my grandpa (my dad's dad) and spend the night there Saturday to Sunday-- then Monday is a DAY OFF!!!
