Counting my blessings........

In a few short hours, 2009 will be gone and 2010 will be here. And with each new year I try (although sometimes I fall short) to think about the kind of person I want to be and what I can do to achieve that. I've tried making new years resolutions but I usually don't follow through with them. I mean lets face it, most of us don't. So this year its all about counting my blessings and being grateful for all of the wonderful people in my life. When I'm worried and I can't sleep I count my blessings instead of sheep And I fall asleep Counting my blessings........ I'm blessed to be going on 30 years of marriage; I have 4 of the cutest little blessings around; And 6 wonderful "big" blessings; 2 furry blessings (at times)..... When my bankroll is getting small I think of when I had none at all And I fall asleep Counting my blessings...... I am grateful for all that I have and I hope that I always think of those who do not have the basics to get by on; I am blessed to be able to see all of my "blessings" mentioned above on a frequent basis!; And with that, when I go to sleep tonight (probably before the clock strikes twelve) I will snuggle down in my cozy bed, ever grateful for the myriad of blessings God has bestowed on me.

  1. Hi Mo,

    Happy New Year to all! I agree, so many blessings--family, health, pets--even the things we can complain about (like the cold weather) come with beauty and being thankful for hot chocolate and a good book to curl up with.

    Love,
    Sheila
