Abundant thoughts

Last night I woke up at 4am and was up for about 2 hours. I went to the bathroom a couple of times, stirred continually trying to find a comfortable position, took Makana to the bathroom once, nursed Makana for little bit several times (as occasionally when I tried to find a comfortable position, she woke up and wanted to nurse to settle back down.) and made sure Li was covered and warm (he didn't have on his woolies and it was a cold night). In between all that, I just laid there thinking. I had so many thoughts going through my head that I was just bursting with them; great ideas, things I wanted to tell friends, things to order from the library. Most of all though, I thought about how happy I was. How I had so much going for me. So many good things are in my life and I was overjoyed with my thoughts and feelings. I thought about why I was happy and what made me feel this way in the first place. I had contemplated started a blog a while ago, but never finished creating it as I couldn't figure out a good title for it. Why does a blog need a title anyway? And I am not sure I feel comfortable putting my true self/thoughts out there. Will I ever share this? Eventually I thought about blogging again and then came up with joyful (Joy is my middle name) and I felt grateful for all that I had, especially my attitude (abundant) and I love ballet dancing and Jim calls me The Bun (a Bun dance). So, there it is!
