21 Reasons to Be Grateful

Hi, Everyone!

It’s three days after my birthday (yes, I’m still celebrating), and I was just thinking: Around this time last year, I had a blog post where I mentioned twenty interesting tidbits about little ol’ me. I thought about doing that again this year, but I couldn’t think of anything brand-new. However, I decided to do something different for today’s very special birthday blog post—this time, I’m gonna list twenty-one things that I am grateful for:

 

1.    I am grateful to have lived to see another birthday.

2.    I am grateful to have been blessed with a beautifully charismatic mom and dad.

3.    I am grateful for my Gramma Jewel and all of her knowledge and wisdom.

4.    I am grateful for the college experience known as Rust College.

5.    I am grateful to have found my sista from another mista, Ruby Jean Hudspeth.

6.    I am grateful for my little brother from another mother, Theodore Campbell.

7.    I am grateful for the drive, desire, and passion that I have to be the best damn kindergarten teacher in the whole world.

8.    I am grateful that I come from a lineage of strong, sexy women!

9.    I am grateful for the fact that I am 4’11” and 140 pounds.

10.  I am grateful to have such a deep passion for learning.

11.  I am grateful that I know my worth as a young woman.

12.  I am grateful for little subtleties, such as a ladybug landing on my arm, a snowflake landing on my nose, and a butterfly in my hair.

13.  I am grateful for hot chocolate with marshmallows.

14.  I am grateful for my Uncle Ronnie’s corny jokes—to this day, they still make me laugh.

15.  I am grateful for the honor of following in my Grampa Clark’s footsteps.

16.  I am grateful that I am not allergic to peanut butter and strawberries.

17.  I am grateful to know that the man of my dreams is out there looking for me.

18.  I am grateful to know that my dad thinks so much of  me that he dedicated a special song to me—“Special Lady” by Ray, Goodman, and Brown.

19.  I am grateful for knowing the secret to true happiness.

20.  I am grateful that I can back up my words with my actions.

21.  I am grateful for being Natasha Renee Stewart.

 

And there it is, y’all—these are just twenty-one reasons why I am truly grateful. Trust me, there are other reasons, but because of my birthday yesterday, I narrowed the list to only 21… hahaha!

Until next time, y’all take it easy, and be good.


Smooches,
Natasha
