Counting Blessing

In the past month my world has totaly changed. I have moved in with my inlaws, lost most of my privacy, lost most of the control of what goes on in my home, when things get done and how they get done. And that all happened at once. To most it doesn't sound like a big deal, but to me it is. I am doing my best to adjust to living with 7 other people rather than just 1. In this time I have realy learned what it means to count your blessing. I have always been very very greatful for wat I have, but I have realised that I have over looked osme small and simple blessing tat really mean a lot to me.

Also, during this same time i have found out a trumendous amount of this that have gone not so good for my family and some of my dearest friends. i am so great that these people have confided in me. Again it has been another reason to count my blessings and be so greatful that I am the person they confide in and not the person who actually as to live through it. It makes my heart hurt because I can't do more then be a listening ear and and a voice of reason, but I know we are all blessed with trials in our lives to test us and make us stronger as people.

I find it amazing how fast we can forget what is so special to us and how fast it can be taken away. I am so glad for the choices I have mad e in my life and where those choices have brought me today. no one ever said life would be easy they only said it would be worth it. As days go by I see that more and more. As time goes on I am able to see heavenly Father plan for Tad and I a little more, and why things happen the way they do. Here are a few blessing I have thought of lately and may be they will remind you of some of the small things life has to offer and we all may of overlooked a time or two:

• I am so greatful for a loving husband
• I am greatful for the eternal love we share
• I am greatful that he would do anything to make sure our family was taken care of
