I've never considered myself to be especially lucky...I don't usually win contests or games, my name doesn't get drawn in drawings, my life hasn't always followed the timeline I had in my head. Yet today, on this St. Patricks's Day, I find myself reflecting on luck, and what luck means to me.
I may not win at Bingo or get picked in drawings. But I am lucky in ways that matter much more. I found my perfect partner (or he found me!) I have a husband who truly loves me unconditionally despite my multitude of flaws. I have two fur babies who are always happy to see me when I come in the door, and who are always willing to snuggle. I have a job where I'm allowed, and even encouraged, to have fun and laugh. I have family and friends who look out for me, and don't give up on me. I have a beautiful house that I already feel is my home (even with boxes everywhere!)
My biggest blessing is being a mom to the two most beautiful angels. I never knew how I'd do with being a mother...would I be able to put the needs of a child ahead of my own? Brady and Henry taught me how to do that, and showed me what true unconditional love is. So although I may not always feel lucky, I actually am. I am lucky enough to be the mother of two perfect angels!
