Count Your Blessings

My sister found this saying on a friends blog and I've accepted the challenge.
Erica is right. This is a great post for this holiday week and I myself haven't posted in a long time! But mine will be a little different than Erica's!

“Count your blessings” is simple to the point of stupid and powerful to the point of life-altering. Gratitude, that very specific feeling of thankfulness in your heart, allows you to see and absorb all you have, forgetting for a moment all you may lack. It connects your brain with your heart, and gives you the ground to be a more giving, effective, loving human. Being grateful allows generosity to flow. And many believe it also makes us more receptive as in, the more you love what you have, the more you get what you want. So herewith, a list to remind you of fundamental things to be grateful for every day, from apples to clouds to ice cream to getting enough nightly Zzz’s.


I am thankful for...

A is for Avie! I love her Chucky smile, her "Uh Oh's" and her curiousity.
B is for Brother-in-Laws. Not only loving but dealing with my sisters!
C is for Chocolate in so many ways! Dark, Hot, Milk!
