Despite spending Saturday night out with friends, I'm feeling pretty proud of myself for waking up early today. I'm not a morning person, well, not really. I'd rather sleep in but being a mom changes that completely. I don't have a choice. When my little boy is up and poking my eyes because he wants to get out of the room already, I have to get up as well.
Aside from feeling pretty proud, I'm feeling rather pretty today. In Manila terms, I may feel fat and I blame the heat. I expand in warm places. Haha! Let's just say I feel more confident about my body here at home.
Managed to get me and my little boy ready for church! Plus points for being able to convince my sister to come with us.
It's a challenge to walk around and meet people we've known since childhood because they all know our story. Well, they all SEEM to know our story. Three sisters, all with a child, single. Yep, something went wrong. Bad decisions, bad choices. Moving on.
Charge to experience. Our little boys are blessings. Lessons? Definitely. But they're more of a blessing, to me at least. I can still name a few people who like to point out what a "wonderful" life I would have if I didn't get pregnant. But that's them. This is me. My little boy? My gorgeous little boy? Whiny? Yes, but I love him so much!
Today was a good day and it's just another thing on my list of things to be thankful about.
