The Prompt: Reality

My reality:

I am 35 and not getting any younger (but don't feel any older than 30).
I am married and have been very happily for 9 years.
I am a mum to two terrific yet wild boys (who sometimes get the better of me).
I am the owner of a very loyal dog Tristan who I love lots and never want to lose.
I am an expat. An American living in England.
I am a daughter, a sister, a niece, a god-daughter, a cousin and a friend.

My life is a work in progress.

I have recently gone through a tragedy that has made me ill for months and each day I hope I feel better, but some days I just don't.

I constantly think of others and usually before myself. I know I am so lucky with what I have (even though I may want, I am usually not in need when so many others are).

I am me and I am blessed.

In reality, I wouldn't change anything! :)

    What more can you ask! If you feel like there is nothing you would change then how great is that! I would say the same but I would prefer to change my body and wish I was back in my younger slim one lol

    Lauryn, I'm so sorry to hear that you've been unwell. I obviously need to catch up on your blog posts. Hope you're feeling better. But it sounds like you are focusing on the reality of the wonderful things in your life. :) xx

    Hi Elfa! Thanks for popping by :-) I haven't written too much about my being unwell as I'm not yet ready, but sometime... My reality is pretty good overall but am currently wishing there was a bit more sun and warmth in it (hurry up spring!) ;-) Take care xx

    Life is a work in progress, it most certainly is! Sorry you've been so unwell, I was about to comment as Elfa did, but then saw your comment. It sounds like your reality is pretty special, and we can't really ask for more than that x Thanks so much for sharing with #ThePrompt x
