Count Your Blessings

[simsamsue]

You know I can't help but feel blessed.  As we are getting ready for my parents fortieth wedding anniversary party I find myself looking back at my life.  I have been very fortunate.  I grew up in a stable home with parents who love each other and us.  My sister, brother and I have always been close and continue to be close even now.  I am not saying everything was perfect, but it was good even the hard times were not too bad.  I have been blessed by finding a wonderful husband who sometimes drives me crazy but stands by me and the boys through it all.  I have three beautiful boys.  My oldest has Asperger's syndrome but has taught me more about life than I could have ever known.  He is such a blessing.  It is frustrating and wonderful all at the same time.  Then there is Holden he is stuck in the middle.  He has such a wonderful personality.  He makes me laugh all of the time. I can't believe he will graduate Kinder this year!!  My youngest is a handful and keeps me busy.  I didn't plan on him coming along so soon but Thank God he did.  He definitely completes our family.  I can't help but feel like I am living out the happily ever after.

WOW!! I totally could have written every line of that. Down to my youngest being a little earlier than I wanted.

Thanks for helping me remember that I am blessed. Sometimes in the everyday life it is hard to remember!
