I thought once a day for the month of November, I would post a quick sentence or two (or more if I get wordy) about what I’m grateful for. And I’m hoping you will join in on the gratefulness and leave a comment with what you are grateful for! Quite often throughout the year, I think about starting a gratitude journal. And then like many of the ideas I have, I never actually do it. So maybe this will be transforming and I will start my own gratitude journal once November is over.
Today I’m grateful for my hubby. For many reasons. But right now I’m grateful for how wonderful he is with our son. He stepped into the role of being a father seamlessly when he greeted Asher and I in Washington DC’s airport after we traveled for 20+ hours and were frazzled, exhausted, cranky and a delirious on jet lag. If Asher wakes in the middle of the night, some nights hubby will get up and tend to him without me asking. (Other nights he will sleep thru it ;)) He changes diapers like a pro, chases our busy Asher around the house like a pro and loves Asher like a father should. Our lives have changed 100% since Asher arrived home in August and it has been so much easier (not *easy* but easier) because hubby has stepped in and been such an hands on dad.
Join in on the gratitude! Leave a comment about what you are grateful for!
Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
I’m grateful for my three beautiful daughters, my life is full of joy (and a lot of work) because of them.
I, too, am grateful for my husband. We have been married for 21 years, we have three beautiful daughters and two amazing granddaughters. He has done it all; from plumbing to puke, boyfriends to backyard shenanigans, even dolls to diapers. He keeps our home full of laughter and we all know we are first and foremost – loved.
I am grateful for my husband,my family and the many blessings God has given us. We are well financially, relatively healthy and live close to family. To top it off we have wonderful friends who are always there for us. My life is complete.
