Today. Friday the 12th. Today I woke up tired and grumpy. Frustrated. Cranky about the fact that it seems like (and I know this sounds ridiculous) every other blogger in the world is on some awesome blogging trip right now.
Everyone except for me.
But then I stopped. I took a minute to look around me – at my incredible, handsome husband. Our precious baby boy. Our sweet, loving pups. The house that we live in, our amazing families, and all the things that we have been so blessed with. And then I got over myself. Because I love what I do, I love what I have, but the most important thing is the fact that I am in love with and I amlovedwholly by the Almighty God. He has blessed me beyond belief, and I should never feel anything but complete and total gratitude for my salvation, my family, my life.
May you have an unforgettable, amazing weekend. I love you guys 🙂
I am not on some fancy smancy blog trip – but i have Ella all day and nothing is better than that 🙂
I love seeing pictures of your son! He looks all grown up in this picture.
Oooh I have chills. I get all bogged down in wanting more blog things in my life, too…but your perspective is RIGHT ON. Thanks for the reminder!
Hugs to that sweet boy from Adrienne and I.
thanks sweetheart – you really have no idea how much your comment has encouraged me!
I hear ya. I’ve had those thoughts on more than one occasion. Still waiting for my fabulous blog trip to happen 😉 We all have plenty to be thankful and happy about though. Great perspective 🙂
maybe our trip will be together 🙂
Totally feel you. I throw pity parties more often than I’d care to admit… but to have a job, to have a loving husband, and most of all, to have the love of the Lord- it’s more than I deserve. Blessed blessed blessed are we!
Sometimes, we feel bad, without really knowing what. But if we have the chance to be surrounded by family, friends, if we have the chance to have enough money to live correctly, if we’re healthy and people that we love too, so … we’re very lucky and we have to remember it.
Friendly 😉
This perspective that you are able to find and hold onto–that is a gift (from Him!). Loving you from here!
