Blessings

Makenna quite often says the blessing on the food at dinner time. Well the other night as she was praying she said a few things that made me stop and think about how many blessings I really have. During her prayer not only did she give thanks for our food but also for our cups, silverware, and plates. It really struck me to the core of how many small little things we are blessed with. For instance, socks. I don't know about you but there are just some shoes that you have to where socks with. Then there are pillows, I know it is possible to sleep with out them, but how much better do you sleep with a nice soft pillow under your head. Also there is carpet. I know that I have a hard time walking on a hard floor all of the time. Nice soft carpet feels wonderful on you feet and is such a blessing.
I am so grateful for the small things in my life that I am blessed with. These small things help me enjoy the big things in my life. My three biggest blessings are Melissa, Makenna, and Maisy. I love my girls so much. I know that I joke some times about all of the drama in my life because of all of the girls in my house, but honestly I don't think I would have it any other way.

Sorry for rambling on. Just wanted to put down some thoughts why they were still swimming around my head.
