I am blessed. I don't always looked blessed, nor do I always feel blessed, but I do know in my little corner of life I am blessed. I am blessed with family that has gone before me, men and women who have braved hard circumstances and overcame what was placed in front of them.My ancesters were people who loved their families, loved this country and loved their God. They worked hard and loved much. In this last year I have started looking for my ancesters and have been amazed at what I have found out about my heritage. Not all was a bed of roses, and some history would better be forgotten, but all in all, wonderful people who lived life to its fullest.
I am blessed with family and friends that have enriched my life. When the drama gets swirling and I have to go clear my head, I can smile at the commotion and re-enter heartfelt conversations.
My kids range in age from 23 to 34 that have been a joy, an exasperation, spinning out of control, difficult at times, but all in all blessings beyond my imagination.
My grandkids range from 1 years old to 15.During my younger mothering years I would hear how much fun grandkids are. Love them and give them back. Never, I thought would grandkids be as much fun as I am having with my children. ahhhhh, right. Grandkids are the ultimate fun. And also the ultimate wear me out dog tired.
I have a job that enables me to interact with others many times less fortunate than myself. They are so grateful for the little things I am able to do for them. I am humbled at the glimpse of a life that I'm not sure I would have the strength or the courage to live on a daily basis.
I am showered with blessings where I stand.
