Gratitude

Postpartum Depression + Post Traumatic Stress = ME!!! I shouldn't joke about it, but, it's my reality and that is how I deal. I was really hoping not to have to deal with the Postpartum this time, but it has creeped up on me...anyway...Why the confessional? Well, my friend Avry did a list of gratitude on her blog and tagged anyone who reads it. These lists are very therapeutic for me so I am going to my list of 20 Gratitude's. I know I do this alot, bear with me as I try to get through this season in my life ; )

Ya know what? It is ok to admit when life is to much for us to bear. I swear we need to have a chocolate + more chocolate = US party! Hang in there girl is there anything I can do for you? I have to admit I looked at your blog & saw how uplifting it was & it inspired me to list things that I am grateful for. Lately it seems hard to see the good but it IS there! :)
