1) I am thankful that Mason's ear infections have finally cleared up. Today he was declared to once again have two nice healthy looking ears. Finally!

2) I am thankful that our problems range from ear aches to flat heads and not cancer and car accidents. It's so easy to get caught up in the little stuff and not remember that compared to some, that's all it is - little stuff.

3) I am thankful that my "hobby job" lets me pick and chose when I want to work and has put up with me even though I took 7 months maternity leave and currently only work 3 hours a pay period. Because those three hours? Are awesome.

4) I am thankful that my two favorite people at the daycare just became the full time teachers in Mason's room. It will be really nice to have set people in there who know what they are doing and listen to my [few, simple] requests. It will also be helpful with #5.

5) I'm thankful we finally have a definitive start date for Mason's helmet. We go pick it up on January 21st (a week from tomorrow). The sooner we begin, the sooner his head is fixed and the sooner we're done. And? I just like having something set in stone for once. So barring snowstorm or mass sickness, January 21st is the big day.

This list could just keep going and going, but I'm out of fingers!
