Counting My Gifts!

This has been an interesting, stressful, emotional, entertaining week. I was reflecting just a moment ago on the Monday through Friday I have just lived through. It was full of experiences, some good, some bad and some exciting. Along with each experience, I have seen a blessing and a gift from each one.

Here is a list, pardon the laziness, of just some of the gifts I have been grateful to receive this week.

The gift...
of helping a neighbor
of preparing food to share with others
of walking hand in hand with my child
of laying down to sleep with my little one
of watching a movie and seeing it through her little innocent eyes
of a quiet house
of hours to fill with sweet smelling laundry and a steamy iron
of a short afternoon nap, with a favorite quilt and pillow
of time spent with my best friend
of new pretty earrings
of new sexy red shoes
of accessories for my house
of time with my mother
of a new opportunity on the horizon
of a dream that made me wake with a smile
of hope that life could really become what I most want it to be.

I have been through a lot this week, but the blessings and gifts have far outweighed the stresses. I hope the same for you!

Living Happily in the Moment!
