Blessings

Reading other peoples posts have helped me count my blessings.
I'm not very good at words, but here goes.................

  • I'm thankful for the trials Travis and I have faced. They've strengthened our marriage and commitment to God.
  • I'm thankful for my son, we've had our problems but I can see were he really tries to please his Dad & Mom. I'm thankful for his questions and imput on the bible.
  • I'm thankful for our oldest daughter. For the connection we have after wondering how to learn & know her.
  • I thank God for the sisters who were with me during her birth. That they came by in love & kindness to instruct me to start giving her formula. I'd just been on my knees in my secret place asking for guidance. Here they came totally prepared.
  • Also thanks for the times untold I'd call Sis Rosalee during a 1 hour feeding for her encouragement in making Syble eat.
  • I'm thankful for all the mother's I've had in the faith.
  • Thanks for my Mother-in-Law who taught me the importance of family.
  • For my little "Melody" who is constantly singing praises to God from her heart.
  • For Travis who somehow sees and knows all my weaknesses and shortcomings and still thinks I'm the greatest woman in the world.
  • For parents who taught me the Love of God, his people, and the Faith.
  • Thanks and praise to God that he saw me and chose me to be his child.
  • Thanks to my sisters who've caught me short a time or two and taught me lessons on love and family.
  • Thanks to God for taking me through the dark times and reminding me were I've been and were I could be.

I think this is a WONDERFUL blog. Such a good idea to stop and think of what we are thankful of, that we on a normal basis, don't stop to think about. And so close to Thanksgiving, GREAT IDEA!

That was a great list. Its hard to always appreciate the constructive help we may get from time to time, but it is always good for us if we have the right heart and mind to receive it.
