So yeah, it looks like it's been a little more than a year since I last wrote here. And in that span of time, a looooot has happened. And for the better! Since it's Thanksgiving, let me share with you the things that I'm thankful for this year. A lot of them happened while I'm away (from myLot) and minding my busy life. Amd when I say busy, that means "reeeeally" busy, haha! Well, to start with, I gave birth in December 2018. I wasn't able to share with you that I was pregnant at that time (while I was still writing) but I believe I have dropped a few hints. I now have my first born, a happy and healthy little girl. I named her Ayah Avery. She's the most wonderful gift I have ever received, and I will eternally be thankful for having her. I am also very thankful for my husband, he who have been always, always supportive with everything that I do, for as long as it makes me happy. I cannot, for the life of me, fathom why I deserve him. I guess all I could do now is to just do my best to make him feel the same. He actually says that he does, and we could go all day with the argument, "who's the lucky one?" Nevertheless, I feel so blessed to have him in my life. I could not imagine myself with somebody else. I am also thankful for my family. Although I and my siblings have been doing our own thing, I feel that we have grown closer and stronger, despite the distance and even if we don't see each other a lot. Well I guess, that's just how families go. One more thing that I am thankful for is that, despite the many changes that I've been through, from living alone into starting my own family, giving birth and getting back to work after a couple of months, I was able to still do good at work and establish a blossoming career. Though I faced too many challenges, I was still able to pursue my career goals. With the help and support of my husband, I am now in a better position at work, one where I can touch more lives and help more people become better versions of themselves. Well, we have a lot to be thankful for, but that makes the most part for me. How about you? Happy Thanksgiving!
