I am blessed. No...really...I am BLESSED!
I have been sitting here today thinking of all the wonderful blessings in my life. My two kids....they are both smart, beautiful, funny, talented, trustworthy, independent, kind, mannerly, and on and on. I do not deserve them. I could never "earn" such wonderful kids.
My gorgeous son in Ethiopia....he will soon be 9 months old. He is strong and alert. His smile lights up a room. He can pull himself up and hold his head up strong. He has beautiful brown eyes and black, curly hair. Again, I never thought that I could be the mother of such a beautiful baby boy!
I have a beautiful home. It is so much more that I would have imagined. Because of twists and turns in life, we have this wonderful home is a quiet, safe neighborhood.
I have amazing parents. They get on my nerves...sure! What parents don't?? But they are kind and compassionate. They are always there and very supportive. They have helped us through financial difficulties and have celebrated all our successes!
And today....i celebrate that after a severe overdose of medication, 4 nights in ICU, 2 trips to the ER, and 3 days in the State Mental Hospital, my Uncle Lynn is home and in his right mind! We were fearful that he would never be "normal" again...but thank God that Satan has no dominion over us and God was victorious in this situation.
Life is FULL of blessings and miracles....you just have to be willing to claim them!
