tracythomp - so happy

i am in a very good place right now. Yesterday we went to lake michigan with Laike. I had so much fun. We were honestly only there an hour or so but wow i was so relaxed. I swam in the lake for the first time since i moved here, which is sad i know. I have put my feet in before but it was always so cold that I never actually swam in it. Yesterday it was 75 degrees in the water and it was wonderful. Laike also put his feet in but was relatively apathetic the whole experience. I on the other hand was aware of how blessed i am. I have this beautiful body of water at my disposal, a wonderful husband who loves me and a precious baby that I get to watch as he grows. I am so blessed beyond what I deserve. My sister in law recently was in a nooma video where she talks about gratitude. " if everything that we have at any moment can be taken a way, or rather can be gone, than it was never really ours to begin with, it is all a gift" Thank God for the gifts, the blessings and amazing things that I have to enjoy in this life. I am in awe of his generosity and so gracious that he is allowing me to partake in this wondrous life.
