What I am Thankful for November 2, 2020


 

Just to note, I know this isn’t a “nature photo” I took it off

a cross at a church years ago, my dad is very religious and

I thought it was fitting.


Today, I am thankful for my dad. I had to start with him

first because he of course has been the one with me since

the beginning. When my mom was still with us they both

always did what they could to help out in any way. 


They would take our eldest son for a week in the summer

and do fun things with him. When my mom passed he continued

everything that they did while she was still alive. He always

took Austin in the summer. We will also visit for a week in

the summer to help him out. 


When my dad fell and broke his hip I became his caregiver.

Even though I started taking care of him he still does little

things just to help us out.


My dad has always stood by my side even when I wasn’t

deserving of it. He was a hard worker and the best dad

I could ask for. Thank you dad for always putting your family first.

I have a whole Disney playlist on my phone for Celeste and you guessed it Tangled is on there, that is one of her favorites as well. I found this DIY and knew I had to blog it that way when she is older we can make them together. Here's what you'll need: construction paper toilet paper rolls scissors glue crayons Create: First, put construction paper around the toilet paper roll. Measure the construction paper and cut it to fit to size. It doesn't have to be perfect. On some of the rolls you can decide to add extra decorations. Like the Rapunzel sun and swirls before you glue it on to the toilet paper roll. Remember this ...
