For today, I am going to join HeavenlyHomemakers.com in counting my blessings. If I start writing, I could probably go on for days, but I’ll just list a few things that I can think of right now. Some, of course are obvious, and some are not so obvious.
- Salvation
- A loving, hard-working husband
- 7 precious children and one soon-to-be born
- A solid roof over my head
- Plenty of food in the pantries, the refrigerators, and the freezers (yes, I have multiples!)
- A job for my husband
- The ability to stay home with my children
- Freedom
- An acre of land for the children to play on
- My husband’s truck in the auto shop giving me another forced day at home!
- Schoolwork waiting to be graded
- Loving family and friends
- Health
- April snow flurries that ARE NOT sticking. ;-)
- The promise of a visit soon from grandparents (Hooray!)
- Noisy children (well, at least they’re happy!)
- Birds, squirrels, deer, racoons, and other wildlife visible outside my window at various times
- A rich heritage
- A need to declutter – we are blessed with an abundance of STUFF
- A definite lack of boredom!
Okay, I’ll stop at 20 for now. What things are you thankful for today?
