The subject for today is Blessings.

This could be a very long post as there are so many blessings in my life.  As I get older and wiser I realize how many blessings I truly have, so for this post here are 50 blessings…

1. Opening my eyes each morning – Let’s face it the fact that you wake up each morning is the ultimate blessing.
2. My Parents – Without them I would not be here.  They made me who I am and I am forever grateful to have them as my parents.
3. Melodie & Lillian – My babies are my everything.  I cannot imagine my life without them and they make my heart complete.
4. My Sister – Growing up we fought A LOT but at the end of the day she always means the world to me.
5. Family – I love my family near and far.  I wish that I could have all my family close to me but I think about them all the time.
6. Friends – I am blessed to have some amazing friends.  I may not see these friends all the time but they are always in my heart.
7. Job – I have a job that allows me to live my life and provide for my kids.
8. My kid’s teachers – I have met some amazing people along the way and they will always hold a special place in my heart.
9. Technology – I have mixed emotions about this one as I have a love/hate relationship with it.  For this post it’s a blessing because it allows me to connect with family and friends that I can’t see every day.
10. My kid’s doctors – I have an amazing group of doctors that have invested a lot of time in my kids.
11. Support Groups – to be able to talk to people experiencing the same thing is amazing
12. A roof over my head – no explanation needed
13. Showers – I don’t want to think about what my life without showers would be like.  Growing up I remember I would take 3 showers a day in the Summer, heck who am I kidding I still do that on the weekends haha.  What? I like to feel clean 🙂
14. Chocolate – Seems silly to have chocolate as a blessing but I am so thankful it exists.

19. My sight – I am so thankful I am able to see all the beauty around me and watch my babies grow each day.
20. Hugs – Both giving and receiving.
21. Lovebugs at the end of Summer – Nothing better than the first love bug sighting in the September time frame
