Thanks and Giving

I haven't blogged in a while. With the Holidays and the kids school, I really just got caught up in the day to day activities that keep us plodding along. I am thankful for so much this year, My family, friends-new and old, my relative good health,and my relationship. I am thankful that I'm in a place that I can "strip down" into myself and feel supported to do my process. To grow within my relationships as well as grow into myself. To know that I am loved when I feel strong and confident as well as when I feel small and not good enough. I have been working on the "not enough" this year. Who do I want to be? I want to be proud of myself...how does one do this? Do I live my life the way I want or what might be expected of us? Who gets to say? Me, well me and Andrew. We are a team. Recently Andrew and I gave our time to Habitat for Humanity. Was a wonderful experience. It felt really good to get out with all these other folks to help our community. I definatly want to continue to give. In a way it felt like such a simple thing to do. I can't wait to do this with the boys...when they are bigger. But, we do share the knowledge of helping others with them. And will continue too. We find ways to teach in simple ways for them to understand. Soon we will be going through their toys to donate. This was always a little hard for them to understand..but I think they are starting to get it. Anyway, Hope everyone is happy and healthy and is having a wonderful Holiday season. Love and Light to you all!
