What "June" has Taught Me

 As a mother, a teacher, a coach and a volunteer, with a life on the side, the month of "June" was, as usual, the craziest time of the year.  Every year, "June" teaches me many things.

"June" reminds me that I have an amazing family that puts up with my craziness, busy schedule and insane mood swings, for that I am grateful. 

 "June" reminds me that I have a wonderful friends and co workers who I truly enjoy spending time with, for that I am grateful. 

 "June" reminds me that I am blessed to have a wonderful job, complete with tasks I love, such as celebrations, explorations and opportunities to help others and change lives, for that I am grateful.  

"June" reminds me that I'm lucky to be active and able to participate in many interests, sports and activities I enjoy, for that I am grateful.

"June" reminds me I live in a beautiful country, complete with wonderful opportunities, for that I am grateful.

"June" reminds me I have strengths, such as organization skills, the ability to help others and the ability to multi-task, for that I am grateful.

"June" also reminds me that I am human. I have my faults, sometimes I try to hard, do too much and don't think before I act.  For the reminder I can improve, I am grateful.

I think it's safe to say, without "June" I wouldn't have as clear of a picture of who I am, what I'm not, and where I need to be.  

Everyone has something that makes you reflect on yourself.  What is your "June"?
