Count your blessings.

by | Personal | 15 comments

I think it’s important to be grateful.

I think it’s important for me to embrace my life as it is. But still aim for bigger and better things.

I think you should do the same.

I think that friends are important but family is essential.

I think that friends can be your family sometimes.

I think I am lucky to be alive, in this place in time with the gifts I have.

I think that sometimes you are better off staying up late to get what you need to do done.

I think you and I are luckier than we know.

I think letting your dog poop on my yard is lazy.

I think I get distracted by stuff outside my window too easily.

I think I love my husband more today than the day I married him.

I think yesterday, it was less.

I think my family are a blessing that I’ll never stop saying thank you for.

I think life is a big, fat gift with the biggest of ribbons on top.

I think if you’re wasting it resting on your laurels, you need to be kicked in the shins.

 

I think this post is done.

    I think you are AMAZING!
    I think messages like these come at just the right time.
    I think sometimes we like to pretend we don’t know it but I think in the end it can’t be ignored forever.
    I think I’d like to thank you and I think I love this blog more every day – Yep, I think even more than yesterday xox

    *puts on shin guards*
    If my husband’s name is Laurel, then can I rest on it? 😛

      Yes. But you get a shin kick anyway for such a Dad joke. 😛

      And hang on, isn’t Laurel a girls name!?

        Technically, yes. But my name is traditionally a boy’s name so I’m sure there’s a male Laurel out there somewhere 😛

          Glow is a boys name!? Weird.

          Baaahaha.
