Thursday Thirteen - blessings

I woke up with a bad attitude today for several reasons. Having said that, I decided the smartest thing to do today for my TT was to count my blessings....

  1. I have a wonderful husband who loves me.
  2. I have four wonderful kids with four totally different personalities.
  3. I have a son-in-law and daughter-in-law that I love and who are the perfect match for my daughter and son.
  4. I have two delightful, adorable, awesome (and lots more adjectives) grandchildren.
  5. I have several very good, very close friends.
  6. I have a great Mom who sets a Proverbs 31 example just like she says her Mom did.
  7. I have three sisters who have always been there when I needed them.
  8. I have a good job with good people.
  9. I have a dog that is always excited to see me.
  10. I have a beautiful home with a yard, a garden and woods with lots of "critters" that I love.
  11. I am healthy (not to be translated as physically fit).
  12. I have a church that accepts me and has provided access to several groups of strong Christians to interact and grow with.
  13. I have a God who loves me even when I have a bad attitude!

Number 11 is cracking me up. Way to go on counting your blessings, I hope it cheered you. Thanks for the recommendation for "getting out of the boat," I haven't read that one yet.
