Days of Thanks | I Tri and Craft

Today I am thankful for nap time.

nap time is the best time

With a two and a half-year old and a six-week old baby there is not a lot of time in my day to sit down. Nap time for my toddler allows me to relax on the couch, sometimes watching the shows I have recorded or sometimes closing my eyes. Mostly nap time allows me alone time with my infant. Time when I can relax and hold him without having to feed, change or burp him.

Today my toddler slept for about 2 and a half hours allowing me to watch a couple shows holding my baby. I didn’t have any responsibility other than holding him, it was wonderful.

As it is obvious to anyone who has looked at a calendar, today is the beginning of November. The holiday of the month is of course Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving being a holiday to recall what we are thankful for in our lives, it is often common to recognize and give daily thanks. Now we are able to broadcast these declarations via social media networks like blogs, Facebook, Twitter and the like. I too would like to share the things in my life that I am thankful for on this blog.

Nov. 1

Today I am thankful for being able to spend Halloween with my boys, my mom, my husband, my sister and her family. With that I am also thankful for the break in the rain that allowed us to trick-or-treat without rain gear on.
