Today I'm thankful for two things. The first is that I have the right to vote and was able to exercise that right today. Even though sometimes it feels like choosing the lesser of two evils, nothing changes if you stay at home and don't let your voice be heard. As Alice and I were on our way I couldn't help but sing "Sufferin' 'till Suffrage." Yes, from School House Rock. It has a special place in my heart. I'm teaching her the importance of her civic duty early.

The second thing I'm thankful for today is a lovely lunch with two dear friends. Who would have thought that when we ended up living together and next to each other our freshman year of college, 13 years later (yikes!) we'd still be friends and mothers? I'm thankful to have them with me on this journey of motherhood. They are amazing women and have always been supportive and caring. I'm thankful they are in my life and Alice's life.
