My Birthday and What I'm Grateful For

December has to be one of my favorite months of the year. In keeping up with blog traditions, today I’m sharing a birthday outfit (first ever with a bump!) #stylethebump along with something sentimental. Usually each December is filled with endless holiday parties, dinner (last year we dined at the Four Seasons - one of the most beautiful buildings in Philadelphia!), a big party and full on glam. This year is definitely looks quite different for a number of reasons. At the beginning of 2020 I would have never thought we would be in the middle of a pandemic (and still are!) AND being pregnant! As my due date is fast approaching I’ve requested that we stay in, have some yummy cake, order dinner and celebrate – before we become a “party of three!”

Here are birthday blog posts from the past:

In keeping up with true blog birthday traditions today I’m sharing 5 Things I’m Grateful For.

5 Things I’m Grateful For

  1. Loved Ones - This year, 2020, I am more than ever grateful for my loved ones. I’m also so grateful to have such a loving and supportive family in everything I do. I wouldn’t be where I am today without any of them.

  2. Basic Necessities - I am grateful for my career and a roof over my head. It’s really sad to see what’s happening in today’s world especially this year.. people loosing their jobs, homelessness and not being able to provide for their families.

  3. Travel & Experiences - I am forever blessed and grateful to have all the travel and experiences I have had the opportunity to have each year. This year I’ve learned to appreciate all the travel experiences I’ve had in the past especially with two big vacations being cancelled - India and then South Korea/Japan. I truly believe travel makes you learn and grow as a person.

  4. Happiness - I am a pretty optimistic and positive person, which I never take for granted.

  5. The Present - Don’t worry about tomorrow and enjoy the present as you can’t control the future. Be happy and appreciate what you have!

I am also grateful for all of YOU - Thank you for supporting me over the years on this blog journey!
