Tired but Thankful

I'm thankful that I wasn't hungover this morning.

And because I wasn't:

*I made the kids breakfast before their 2nd day of school this year (even Gabie - she won't eat unless I make her).

*I drank coffee and chatted with them at the table while they ate.

*I made sure they each had their vitamins.

*I made sure they brushed their teeth, put on lotion, cologne and perfume before leaving for the bus.

*I hugged them each goodbye for the morning and I wasn't embarassed of being hungover.

*I listened to the Today Show while getting ready for work, instead of worrying about a disparaging appearance at the office.

*I said my prayers of thanks in the shower, instead of praying for the ability to make it through another day.

*I was conscious of the simple but infinately beautiful blessing I have of being a father and I contemplated this while getting dressed.

It's another beautiful day -
