Butler's Buds of Love: I'm Thankful

So, this weekend has been rough but I made it through! Friday was a downer and I missed a fun birthday party on Saturday. I knew going into this that everything isn't going to work out the way I want it to. I even knew that the chances of IUI working the first time were very slim. I was hopeful though. I have to change my mindset going into round 2. Instead of being sad about what I don't have, I need to be thankful for all that I do have. I have a husband who is wonderful and loves me no matter what. Parents who are alive and healthy and who would do anything for me. I have a sister who just gave me a new niece. I have in-laws who love me. I have supportive friends who are holding me up through this rough phase in my life. I have a lot to be thankful for. I am trying not to dwell on what I don't have when I have so much. It's easy to say and hard to do...but I'm trying. I will make it through this journey...

PS...Happy birthday to the sweetest niece a girl could ask for! Laila, I love you more than you will ever know and being with you this weekend made me so happy. I cannot believe you are two!!
