Count your blessings

I had a friend tell me this week, "Count your blessings."

And I thought, that's a nice sentiment.

And gave her a sweet smile, and walked away.

But as I strolled, I was overcome with emotion.

I began counting my blessings.

Naming them one by one.

And I realized, in that moment, that my blessings will always, always outnumber.

Today, I am especially thankful for the precious blessing of this little boy.
