- I am grateful for my daughters step mother to have allowed herself some empathy for our situation, and apologize for being very disrespectful to me.
- I am grateful to have such amazing people to work with!
- I am grateful for my best friend at work- he truly makes me feel valuable, and he brings such great laughter to my life!
-I am grateful that I had the opportunity to hang out with my sons father the other day- its very helpful for my son.
- I am grateful to have the internet! Oh how I love looking things up all the time!
- I am grateful to be on track with my finances.
- I am grateful to have such a connection with music and singing!
- I am grateful to be letting go of things in my life that don't work for me, and focus on the things that do work.

So I was going to write a gratitude list last night before bed. But I didnt go to bed:( My son was up all night with a wicked fever:( Exhausted today.
There are still things I would like to acknowledge though about yesterday though, here they are:
- I am grateful for the check I received in the mail that I have been waiting for, for over 3 months, we really needed that!
- I am grateful to have some alone time with my son (even if he is sick) while my daughter visits her father for the weekend.
- I am grateful to have such understanding co-workers that have worked with me when my children are sick, and have been so very understanding and supportive!
- I am grateful to stand up for myself finally and say whats on my mind when things come up no matter what it causes the other person to feel. I realize I am not responsible for anothers feelings, rather- I am responsible for being authentic with my own. Not to say that I dont want to be kind to others- always a must, but just that its ok for me to say exactly as I feel and allow the other to take ownership for their own responses and thoughts.
Thats it for now.
-For future gratefulness- I will be grateful to have a full nights sleep tonight when I get home with my son.
Gratitude list for today:

-I am grateful for my sorrow to move forward with letting go of my object of affection.
- I am grateful to have had the day off today to rest.
- I am grateful to have spoken with my friend from class.
- I am grateful for having food in the house finally!
- I am grateful for how responsible my daughter is becoming!
- I am grateful to have seen my son yesterday morning.
- I am grateful for tomarrow to be payday.
- I am grateful to be getting on top of my finances.
- I am grateful for my roomate helping us out with money to stay here!
Goodnight everyone!

Ok So, I have noticed that every morning my daughter loves to throw a tantrum about something, if not her my son. We have everything planned out the night before- My daughter seems to want to change everything in the morning at the last min, I tell her no and to stick with what she picked out. Temper tantrum- And all while my roomate is trying to sleep. UGH!

Ok a short story... My daughters father was evicted from his place a few months ago. For the first time, in almost 9 years i have finally had my daughter to myself.
Recently, he ended up burning the bridges with the man him and his wife were staying with, and had to come back.
Now there are emotional changes in my daughter again with the transition, and I am going back tot the old habit of pushing away rather than bringing her close to me, Any suggestions?
