Weekly Gratitude Post 5/10/21

Today’s Gratitude Post is brought to you by…

Me!

I’m grateful for relaxing Sunday mornings, the ability to lie in bed & pray & cuddle with the 3 year old. Little pockets of grace in the midst of a far-too-busy life.

I’m thankful for My Kids – 8 special blessings who call me Mom. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be their Mother. I’m grateful for the Forgiveness & Grace I receive from God & my kids when I mess up & make mistakes. I’m thankful for all that they (& ultimately God) teach me on this journey.

I’m thankful for My Mom, who has been a wonderful model of a Godly Mother. I’m thankful for her listening ear, godly advice, and faithful prayers.

I’m thankful for opportunities to be celebrated – the cake & cards and special meal was wonderful. But I’m also thankful for the opportunity to serve my family. I can remember times of wallowing in self pity & it was miserable. But when I choose to serve my family cheerfully, even on a day like Mother’s Day where it would be easy to say, “I’m not lifting a finger today, I do every other day”, the blessings received are even more special. And the joy it brings…I’m grateful! ❤🥰
