1. my life. two nights ago i was laying in bed thinking about all the things that i'm really thankful for and with my due date coming right up (december 16th) i've been thinking a lot about the last time i gave birth. remi is the center of my life now and i wonder what life would be like if things had turned out differently during his birth. i was in labor for 3 days before he was born and because of that trauma my body crashed majorly after the birth. i was convulsing and white lipped. my blood pressure dropped to 27/30. my mom said an army of nurses rushed in when she ran for help and got me back. if i hadn't had modern medicine available and wasn't in the hospital, would i have died? i really think that might have. i'm doubtful that my body could've recovered on it's own. so yes, i am grateful for my life. i'm grateful for the chance that i have to be a mother to my darling little boy whom i love so much. i'm grateful for all the little things that i get to teach him and being able to see his eyes light up when he understands. i'm grateful for my little kitchen helper that loves to push the blender button for me and loves to watch the mixer as it turns things around and around and around. i'm grateful for being able to teach him my love for the world. i'm grateful for being able to snuggle with him, to make him laugh, to just be with him. so yes, i'm thankful for my life and the time i've been given to be a mother.
