Blessings

My life is full of blessings, and I wish that those blessings would compensate for the stresses.
I'm going to work on documenting those blessings in these posts.

  • I'm blessed with two enthusiastic and creative boys.  Even when one prefers to be holed up in his room designing a new CosPlay outfit and the other can quote the Disney Channel at the drop of a hat.  One of these days they won't want to snuggle with their mom... and they'll grow up, but I want them to always know how much they mean to me!
  • I'm blessed with a boyfriend who is doing his best to provide for our family.  A little axe welding in the side yard has resulted in several cords of wood ready for the newly installed wood stove this winter.
  • I'm blessed with parents who support me in all of my endeavors - including setting up and tearing down my craft booth this weekend and letting my kiddos hang out at 'the farm' rather than sit with me.
  • I'm blessed with the ability to explain difficult math concepts to reluctant students.  Even when they don't want to listen... at all!
  • I'm blessed with colleagues who give of themselves more than they get.  And often don't know how much they are appreciated.
  • I'm blessed with a roof over my head that provides me a safe haven.  
  • I'm blessed with good health - and should remind myself of that every day!
Yes, I'm blessed with many things - and need to focus on those to help get through those tough times.
