In the past year there has been so much turmoil in my life that sometimes the blessings of each day went unnoticed. Thankfully, I am not alone. At some point in everyone's life, blessings of the day will be taken for granted and under appreciated. So today I decided to try to look for the hidden blessing around me. It was an interesting challenge to myself and I have a greater appreciation for the little things around me.
Here are some of the blessings that I found:
- The smell and taste of cinnamon rolls fresh from the oven
- A sunny day that helped to melt the snow
- Having the opportunity to be stuck at home with the family all day
- Watching pumpkin and princess string beads on pipe cleaners
- Watching princess pick out the just the star beads from an assortment of beads
- Finding time to read a few devotionals online
- Watching my husband take pumpkin on a winter walk through the neighborhood
- Holding princess while we played with purple play dough and made butterflies
- Grandma dropping by with news from church and talk of a sewing project
- Watching a movie with my husband during the children's naptime (a mini-date)
- Not having to cook supper because my wonderful husband brought home a pizza
- Finding time to set out clothes for tomorrow
- A friend stopping by for a visit
- An early bedtime for pumpkin
Looking forward to more blessings tomorrow! Especially if it means that I will get the use of my car again sooner than later.
