2008 - Blessings

This month has been full of many happy times but also several struggles. The struggles seem small though because the blessings are so abundant. I am really trying to focus on the things that REALLY matter.

Lord, you have given me a beautiful family whom I love with a love deeper, stronger and bigger than anything here on earth! I know they love and support me, even in my imperfection because they say it and they also show me. I am aware of your presence in their words and actions. I try to thank you in each of those moments - - to express my gratitude for your love.

This month we have been busy as a family and I regret not reaching out to others in my family who aren’t a part of our day to day activities. I am really beginning to feel a bit selfish for keeping the joy of my family to myself and not sharing. I really need to make more of an effort to reach out to grandparents, aunts and uncles, etc. The girls are growing so fast! They are awesome.
