It doesn’t surprise me this list is overflowing. When you have children you have so many things to be thankful for. What are you thankful for?

As I sit here and contemplate the next month, that is going to be so full of things to do. I realized I need to make sure I do the one thing that is the most important thing. Be thankful. Be thankful for little things and big things and silly things.

This month I am going to post 25 things I am thankful for every Thursday. And who knows some weeks I may post more than 25 things. But if I at least post 25 things each week this month I will have a list of 100 things I am thankful at the end.

What are you thankful for?

One exciting thing is that I had a place that had requested my resume a couple of weeks ago. I just got their message from monday that they wanted to meet me. (Good thing my interview pants have an elastic band.)

I wanted to be up-front with them about me being pregnant. I knew that some employers don’t like to hire someone that is pregnant. It’s a risk. Is the employee going to be coming back after maternity leave? How long of a leave will they be taking?

They were actually excited for me. They said that was a wonderful thing and that it wouldn’t be an issue. So I have an interview and I’m really excited about it. The only thing I’m worried about is my face is really broken out because of hormones and my clothes have already started not to fit.

Well, thank you again for all the kind comments. I will let you know how the interview goes.
