i finally did something crafty.
we trenkletoes are committed
to counting our blessings this year.
the idea is to jot down some
thankfulness, a new memory,
a praise or a prayer.
and read thru them
at the end of the year.
the kids have already written
their first deposits.
i felt a little creativity welling up
for this personal project
and labeled my "blessings jar"
with some pretty words
spoken from my heart.
sometimes i forget to
simply say
thank you
to the One
who gives me breath
and
daily redeems my heart!
i want to have more
purposeful gratitude.
i have such a rich life, really.
