Lessons Learned, Gratitude & Crazy weeks at school

Happy Thankful Thursday!!!
There has been so much going on this week.  Naenah had her first field trip, and of all places it was to the pumpkin patch!  I had the awesome pleasure of being able to attend as a parent group leader.  Nae and I were grouped up with two other little girls that made the day fun and eventful.  We rode a trailer pulled by tractors out to the pumpkin fields, picked pumpkins, got lost in a corn maze, had a picnic sack lunch.  All three girls napped on the bus ride home.  I was present in the moment during the course of the day.  On the ride home, reflection was pretty funny.  I had a blast!!  Exhausted, but it was fun.
Today, Nae rides a firetruck all over town for Fire Safety Week. Tomorrow is a half day at school, home early.
So much has been going on this week that you would think that I would have no time to reflect.  Its just the opposite.  All this stuff happening and I'm struck with Gratitude.  Making me understand just how wonderful it is that I get to be here to do all this stuff with her.  To take pictures of her new experiences.
Her Daddy is a true hero.  We made this move to improve her quality of Life.  He works long hours so that I can be there to send him pictures of all the fun stuff. Yet again another thing to be Grateful for.
I finally got to sit down and connect with my business partner, Hayley.  Both of us so busy the last few weeks that our orbits are just now coming back to one another.  Lunch was good, so glad I had the chance to sit and see her for a bit.
Cut my finger last Saturday.  I've taken the week to let it heal.  Now, my week next week is full!
Lesson learned this week:  I love my Life.  All of it.  The ups and the downs.  Why?  Because its mine.  I got to pick and choose every heartache, happy thought, frustration and gleeful moment.  Its no lie, Life really is what we make of it.
So, go on.  Make Life.  Then, if you have a minute, let me know about it.
Love, Light and Bright Blessings
