My many blessings

Wow, it has been almost two months since I posted anything to my blog.
I was sitting in my office today and looking at all of the pictures that I have of my family, it made me realize how blessed I am. When I was younger, I use to think that to be happy I needed material things, but as I have grown older I realize that money doesn't make you happy, for instant, my son called me the other day to wish me a Happy Birthday, he addressed me as how was the most beautiful 59 year old woman in the world doing. See what I mean about blessings, I have so many sometimes it overwhelms me and I start crying. I remember when I was by myself, after my divorce, raising my children by myself, their father was close by, but it is not like having a loving husband that you live with everyday, I use to feel sorry for myself, but I realize now that the Lord was preparing me for today, so I would appreciate all of my blessings that he has given me, from my loving husband to my wonderful children and grandchildren. I thank God on a daily basic for all that he has given me.
