Midwifery school is this fabulous thing. It is always interesting. Yet, when I sit down here with the white screen searing my retinas, I often find it hard to think of one interesting thing to say. So, today, a short list of things I am grateful for. I used to have a really good gratitude practice, saving little notes every day to an app in my phone. However, a year ago my phone died and took all my little notes with it. I've had a hard time renewing the practice since then, but I've got a new app now and I'm being grateful when I remember to be.
Today I am grateful for:
- Cub's whisper, every morning when he's just waking, to cover him up because his toes are "freeeezing!"
- Calgary in the fall. I couldn't plan more perfect weather if I tried.
- Reminders that my parents were here and that they still take care of me: a fridge full of leftovers, a bookshelf that needs to be assembled, a kitchen light that works.
- A clean car that PB carefully detailed on the weekend, just because.
- Midwifery. Duh.
I could go on forever but five feels like a good number for today.
