So - After you spend time reading my incredibly interesting zoo post below *snicker* *yawn* - I want comments. Yes - I said comments...after I posted about the zoo, I opened my email box and realized how much bigger this blog has gotten than I ever realized. Started out as a way to keep in touch with distant relatives and friends..and I never expected this friend to tell that friend, to tell that friend....and people are emailing me that I never knew were reading. (makes me think I need to be more selective about what I write, but then again - I am what I am, and you can close the screen if you don't want to read it ) And since I am feeling a bit wishywashy today (Just read Jaymun's update for today *sigh* ) - I decided I need to hear some postive things - so....
I want to know what makes you feel blessed. And no - you can not simply say, "my husband and kids" - dig a bit deeper. I want you to find the small things...the important things...look deeper. Why do you feel blessed by your husband? Or your children? What is about say your garden that makes you feel blessed or happy?? I will share my reasons tomorrow...although J and the kids are not the only reason I feel blessed today......

Ok - I'll follow the rules and go first.
I love my husband because we truely work together as a team (in love) to raise our family. We juggle the kids and chores like pros, usually without a word of direction to each other. We were meant to be.
O tay - I will play along. I feel blessed by everything in my life. Especially blessed with love in my life from every part. From the little surprises(like my favorite iced coffee waiting for me in the kitchen on a Saturday morning when he has left the house early) my husband does to let me know he loves me and is thinking about me. The handwritten mother's day note from my daughter telling me that "half of her heart will always be mine" (the other half is for daddy)that makes me smile deep down to my heart. to the birds singing in the morning when I get up for work. Every sound, smell, beautiful flower, tree or person makes me feel alive and happy. We all share this earth for a limited time. The people and things in our lives are God's way of letting us know he loves us and has made the world beautiful for us. We all have heartache and tradgedy but God provides me with the blessings in my life to get us through it.
That got a bit wordy... but I guess that is what you were looking for.
Love ya!
