@KateDoskocilova

what's one person that you feel thankful for?

One person I feel thankful for is my mom. 

why are you thankful for them? 

She tried or tries really hard to keep our family together and make sure everyone was and is okay. She worked herself sick trying to make this happen, and just keeps going even though everything fell apart. 

and

what's one person in your relationship(s) that makes you laugh, that you appreciate

?

I watched this video today, and ended up renting the movie and watching it this morning.

https://youtu.be/s1dYe4vmKEo?si=2nKdAPDTu4yXs9tW

I laughed watching the movie, and I don't have any reason to laugh these days.

I appreciate who made this video, for making me laugh.

I’m really thankful for my wife. She loves our family. And is consistently there for all of us, especially through challenging times.


my sister makes me laugh a lot. We have an odd sense of humor and she gets me in ways that only really come from growing up together.

I'm thankful for my husband, he saved me from trafficking and gave us a new life. He loves all of my little personalities and the not so little ones 😊

I'm grateful for some of my mental health workers, Lisa, Kate and Dr Mike. They make me feel like recovery is possible.

I also have an awesome sis and bro in law who just get us and I can unmask with.

annnnnnnd I have some wonderful cups friends @mytwistedsoul & @theLemonade who do great work & @tinywhisper11 who inspires me more than she could know.

I can think of loads of people that bless me, so I'm very lucky!!!

1. What's one person that you feel thankful for? Why are you thankful for them? 

I am thankful for my stepmom. She's an incredible woman who has loved me and treated me like I was her own... even in my 30s. She's supportive, loving, wise, and so much more. She's the best grandma to my kids and I just love and appreciate all she is and does. 

2. What's one person in your relationship(s) that makes you laugh, that you appreciate?

Easy, my spouse. A decade of marriage and he still makes me life. He has a sense of humor and everyday is something new. Even on days I would rather not laugh, I still end up doing it.
