Day #22

Day 22 – A letter to someone who has hurt you recently. A letter to someone I love, who I don't tell enough. (My resolution is to be positive... this wouldn't help)

There are so many people I love, who love and support me, that I don't tell enough...

The in-laws-

Brent and Brenda,
I will forever be humbly grateful to you because of the son you gave me. I know Brandon didn't become Mr. Wonderful entirely on his own. Brent, thank you for teaching him to be so respectful, hard working, and really great dad, he learned by your example! Brenda, I know he learned how to be so giving and compassionate from you. Those are your best qualities, that I am so glad you passed down to your son! Thank you both, for accepting me into your family, for loving me like a daughter, and for being amazing grandparents to Irey and Reese. You guys are the best!


My parentals-

Mom and Dad,
Forgiveness is the biggest thing that comes to mind when I think of you two. If my daughter crashes and totals my car... twice, I hope I can demonstrate as much love and support as you two did. You didn't let the fact I no longer had a licence stop me from going to hair school my senior year and doing what I dreamed of.  Who knew that by supporting me in that one goal, would lead to so many other life goals to be accomplished. Brandon and I were able to accomplish so much in our short time being married because of your support then and now. I hope the countless late night talks, hours spent driving me to and from, money paid for tuition, and oh yea, that year we lived in your house... has paid off for you guys too. I owe so much of my success and happiness in life to your love and support. Thank you thank you!


My sisters,

Wow, would I have made it through childhood, dating, and motherhood with out you three?! I highly doubt it! Thank you for knowing me so well and loving me anyways. Thank you for causing me to laugh until I pee my pants, every other day. You gals are the best kind of therapy ;) I am glad we ended up in this crazy, loud, opinionated, family together. No one would understand me like you guys do!


Hubby,

I tell you all the time I love you and am grateful for you! But this week I am particularly grateful for your ability to never stop listening to my obsession with "pregnancy talk", I am sorry it's so annoying and yes, I too wish I could stop talking and thinking about all things pregnancy! Thank your for understanding and support with this crazy back pain that is crippling... it makes me very  difficult to live with and sleep next to. When the house is a mess and the dishes are overtaking my kitchen... thanks for tackling that in your ZERO spare time while I am enduring these last few weeks. But mostly thanks for wanting to hack through life with me... these ups and downs wouldn't be worth living through if it weren't for you!


My girls-

 32 weeks

Irey and Reese,
You two are amazing, even Reese who isn't really here yet! You challenge me to be a better person everyday. Some days that means Irey tests my patience to the limit and Reese test my physical ability to endure and some days it's showing me that you are watching every move I make and you really do depend on me to be a good person to show you the way. I don't want to even think about how empty my life would be with out my kids. I am just glad your here and I can't wait to hold you BOTH in my arms and hold you tight!


And thanks to anyone who actually reads my blog, and finds it in their heart to not judge my rantings, bad spelling, and me!
