~ My wonderful, understanding, helpful, strong headed husband. He makes life make so much more sense, and loves me and my odd quirks unconditionally. He has turned into an amazing father, and that only makes my love for him stronger. I love watching them together.
~My amazing little man. He blows me away daily with how fast he learns, how strong he is, and how he gets his temper from his daddy! He loves reading like his mom but loves boats and trucks more, just like Dad. It is really hard to believe that it has already been 13 months since he joined our little family, however at the same time I can not remember life before him.
~My job / my husbands job. Ok, I may never admit to that again if you ask, but I am deeply appreciative of the dealership providing a crazy hectic life, that allows Kyle to provide for Kyle and I. I am also grateful that I get to work from home and be a stay at home mom.
~Our families. We are truly blessed to have such loving and supportive families on both sides. We would not be the parents we are today with out them. Our son is blessed with an amazing aunt and uncle, another aunt, and two sets of amazing grandparents. He has a life full of family and for that we are truly grateful.
~Our friends. Whether new or old, mommy friends or dealership friends, college friends or high school friends, all the people in our life who help us stay sane with laughter, a night out, deep discussions or vacations...
~Now for my list of things that are random, but I am truly grateful for.... The Twilight Saga for letting me escape reality, ice cream because it needs proper recognition, dogs that are still loved even though a kiddo has taken the forefront, my oil lamp from Bath and Body Works for taking the ever present diaper smell out of Kyle's room, Facebook because I am just addicted, BCS Mamas for letting me be a part of an amazing group of women, comfy shoes that don't make your feet smell, wearing my husbands flannel pants, whoever first thought of creating a peanut butter chocolate combo, gas prices dropping, the Internet, and so so so much more...
~Above all else, I am grateful beyond words for my faith. It has struggled over the years, and I am sure there are trials that will still come my way. But most of all because I no longer define myself as just another person. I am truly a Christian Wife and Mother, and that means so much.

Now the Twilight part...
Ok this is utterly stupid.
The Twilight Saga (Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn) have consumed my life this past week. I have not read like this in years. I officially read 2560 pages of teenage vampire stories in 6 days, and loved it. So on day 7, I read 264 more online.
My husband thinks I am crazy, but I have not gotten into a book, much less a series, like this in YEARS. I could read these books over and over and same with this movie. Ugh, I feel like a teenage girl that should have pictures of Edward Cullen posted all over my stupid Myspace page, but I can restrain to just gush about it on here instead.
I could see every detail, every picture so clearly it was like I was there, and involved. Ugh, ok thats enough I will stop. However, if you need to escape reality for even a moment... pick up these books and prepare to become addicted.
