day 128: wet on my face
I was out doing some last-minute Christmas shopping this morning and found myself so choked up I nearly had to pull over. Everyone in the family home for Christmas. Everyone healthy. A warm home. Great friends. A husband who loves me. Faith that my Heavenly Father loves me enough to send his Son. For me.After I left the first store I threw a bag in the back of my car and climbed into the driver's seat to head to my last stop. In the short 5-minute drive between stores it happened again. A lump in my throat the size of an ornament on the tree as I silently contemplated my life. I am humbled, humbled and humbled again as I count my blessings.

I KNOW!!! Oh, how I know. XOXO
My heart is in the very same place this Christmas. I am so blessed.
The blessings just keep coming! Savor the moment, next year will be different but still blessings will come!
I liked reading about this. I had a similar experience on the same day as I contemplated my 2009 events. Blessed through trials is how I sum it up.
I have been blessed through my trials this year. I have received one boy home from a mission and we are getting one ready to go out the end of next summer. I can't believe how quickly they grow up.
Beautiful! It's been a good year.
