I’m thankful that my boys are happy and healthy and are just magnificent humans, I’m thankful that they call me the best name I’ve ever been called in life - Mum.
While shopping, my H and I called in a record store that has band, funny, offensive, cute t-shirts, I saw a quirky one that applied to my H and we both laughed, he asked me what size I thought would look best on him and I told him, he said I’m just going to pay for this, he did and he came back happy as a lamb with his newly bagged t-shirt. I know that may sound like nothing to most but my H has never bought anything for himself without me forcing him or just buying it for him, he hated spending money on himself, not only that but he would never EVER wear anything like a quirky t-shirt, he was always consumed with what others would think.
We just went along to the next store but I felt a rush of something, I was so taken back by what I’d just experienced, 26 years and I’ve never seen him do that, just see something he liked and buy it for himself, he was at peace, happy, relaxed and I’m thankful I got front row tickets to see that, him become himself, the only word I can find to describe what I saw is beautiful.
