Enjoying my blessings

As I sit here watching my almost 3 month old sleep, my 14 year old play her game and my husband play rocksmith I can't help but realize just how wonderfully blessed I am , and how much I am enjoying those blessings.


We are told children are a blessing, and what a tremendous blessing they are!  The joy that they bring easily out weighs the hours of labor and the struggles of pregnancy.  Sometimes we don't realize how blessed we are till we do not have the blessings.  After experiencing two miscarriages in under two years, even the struggles of parenthood are a blessing.

I am blessed once again to be a stay home, homescholing mom and I am enjoying every second of it!. I am blessed with a wonderful husband who works really hard to provide for us and does a wonderful job. He is a great dad, often helps however he can with the kids and housework, even if he has had a long day at work. I love him dearly and I am so glad God chose him for me. I could not ave picked a better match. Again a tremendous blessing.

I am the mom of a almost 15 year old girl who does her school work without me forcing her to and wants to do well.  She also loves the Lord with all her heart and loves telling others about Jesus.  She loves her little sister and is a great help with her. She is a great blessing, I love her joy and enthusiasm for things of God and for helping others.  I am so blessed to be her mom.

Even with all the challenges of parenthood, children are indeed a blessing! What blessings have we often overlooked because it was hard or made us uncomfortable fo r a time.  I for one never want to complain about being up with a baby, or taking my 15 year old out to her sports.  Instead I will choose to enjoy it and thank my Heavenly Father that He has choosen to bless me with these two girls.
