Thirty Days of Happiness

DAY ONE (Sept. 23, 2008)

1.. Im thankful that I married the man that I married. Im thankful that we made it back to each other after five years of not seeing each other and that we were able to see that we were meant for each other. We could have our differences but I wouldnt have it any other way. He makes my life complete as much cheesy that may sound.

DAY TWO (Sept. 24, 2008)
2.. Im thankful that even though we were not "socially" ready at that moment, we got pregnant with Gabriela, and Im thankful that she was born "healthy" regardless the time she had to spend in the NICU.

3.. Im thankful that when Gabriela was born my mom and husband were able to be at the delivery, and they "push" her with me.

DAY THREE (Sept. 25, 2008)
4.. Im thankful that I found the OB that did Mia's delivery when I found her, because I think God was working with her hands.

5.. Im thankful that I was able to notice that something wasnt right when my blood pressure went up the night before I had my emergency c-section with Mia.

6.. Im thankful that after all the complications that I had with Mia, she ended up being a healthy baby. Some NICU day, but healthy.

DAY FOUR (Sept. 26, 2008)
7.. Im thankful that my blood pressure have been fine after Mia's delivery, and even though it has gone up a few times, I think it has nothing to do with me having a medical situation, but a rush moment.

8.. Im thankful that even though we were using birth control, I got pregnant with Mimi, and now she is here lighting up my days.

9.. Im thankful that my mom had the opportunity to help me out with Mia during Mimi's pregnancy, while my OB didnt want me to hold Mia.

10.. Im thankful that even though Mimi had a rough welcome into the world, she manage to get healthy and leave all the complications that she had in the past.

- Im really sorry for the days without posting, but I will continue to do it soon....

30 Days of Happiness - INTRO

One mom (Tara) who’s daughter is very close in age with Mimi, started a post called 30 Days of Happiness. The idea is to keep a journal for 30 days and on the first day white down one thing that she is thankful for. On the second day, two more things, on the third day, three more things, and so on and on. I felt in love with the idea as soon as I saw it and she told me it was Ok for me to join her! So, I will start today and at the end I will have 465 reasons.

Every day, I will edit the post, and I will post one, two, three and so on reasons (depending which day is it) that Im thankful for. I added a link on the right size of my blog, so you don’t have to dig it every time. Hope you guys get a chance to check on it from time to time. If one of you guys wants to join me and do it on your blog, go ahead (and if you want a help with a link on your right side, let me know too). Things have been so rough around here, than having a reminder of what is really important will help me to get through this difficult times.
