Blessed

Right now, I feel blessed.

I feel blessed for a loving husband, who works hard, enjoys working hard, and then comes home with open arms for his wife and all three of his excited children.

I feel blessed for health and energy.

I feel blessed for the ability to hold a baby, and for eyes to watch my baby discover the world around her.

I feel blessed to have easy access to my second favorite place on earth. Yes, I've been to Paris, London, and Rome, but I must say, at this moment in my life, this lake takes the top. I feel blessed for that.

I feel blessed for a home that is comfort for my children to return to from a long day in the sun.

I feel blessed for the time spent with friends while in the sun.

I feel blessed for the sun and the healing vitamins it provides.

I feel blessed, oh how I feel blessed.

I feel blessed for two busy boys who sat for 1.5 hours in the bank today with their Momma, keeping their voices low and making good choices with their hands.

I feel blessed for their innate need to hunt and provide, wrestle like bear cubs, and then snuggle in the arms of their Momma, asking to her to read them a book.

I feel blessed for fresh mountain air.

I feel blessed for a triple jogger.

I feel blessed for hand-me-down swimsuits, that may be a little loose in the rear.

I feel blessed.

I am blessed.

"From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another."

John 1:16 (NIV)
