So, in my cranky mood I decided I didn't want to participate in Thanksgiving. I wanted to rebel and not make a turkey and lots of sides and tons of desserts. I wanted to go out to Red Lobster and forget about how I would be missing the parties.
Side note: Michael is amazing!! He puts up with me and still loves me! I am so thankful for him!
After sulking for a while Michael suggested we make a sea food Thanksgiving dinner and I agreed to it.
Today when everyone was together with families I got grouchy again. I missed the whole point of this holiday. I forgot to be grateful to be with my beautiful family until Michael put his magic to work. He has a way to get me out of my worst bad mood. He got me laughing and smiling and Olivia doesn't have to do much to help because she is such a joy to be around. I had a blast cutting my crab legs with my scissors and pulling out the meat and laughing with Michael over dinner. I enjoyed every second I had making Olivia giggle today. I am so grateful for my family of 3! I would be a grouchy, cranky mess without them.
I am also very grateful for my savior Jesus Christ. In my bad mood I was able to turn to him in prayer and ask for the peace and happiness I had lost to come back. He has blessed me more than I can ever express.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and enjoyed being with their loved ones.
