Such a mixture of emotions. Hopeful, but anxious, too. Most of all, I'm thankful. That I have Eric, who finds little ways to comfort me. His hugs make everything better. Or that kiss when he senses I've had a stressful day. And Maki. Who cuddles with me and gives me licks when I need them the most. I'm thankful to be surrounded by friends and family that are so caring. It brings me so much joy to watch my nieces and nephew grow into such loving children. There's a lot to be thankful for and it's these times when I'm feeling overwhelmed that I need to remember all the wonderful things in my life.
