Although yesterday was terrible, today was a much better day. I pushed myself above and beyond my normal limits today.
I cooked all day, cleaned, did laundry, and even had enough energy to decorate my house some for Christmas.
Did I mention that I absolutely love Christmas? I love Christmas music, looking at the lights, and just embracing the season. I love how my children, no matter their differences, have so much fun coming together and helping me decorate.
We all know that eventually my cancer will end my life, so we take nothing for granted anymore. I'm still alive to put up decorations with my little family and that is truly a blessing.
Tomorrow, we finally get to feast on turkey! I can't wait. I'm so excited to be with my family the whole day.
The kiddos, Kevin, and I are watching the very first Charlie Brown movie. It makes for a perfect ending to an already perfect day.
I've never seen life in this perspective before and I live life in a completely new light. Those big things that once seemed important to me have now switched places with all the little things. Coffee in the mornings with my husband, listening to the birds chirping, hearing my babies laughter...All these things mean more to me now than I could ever even explain in words.
I'm going to close this blog early so I can watch the movie with my beautiful family. Cherish every single moment you have...Every single moment. I love you all, mean it!
