This morning I was inspired to keep a 2 minute Grateful list. The idea is to take two minutes and write down as many things as you can that you are currently grateful for. Kids can do it, too! Here’s mine:
- checkbooks that balance to the penny
- children that play together quietly
- checking things off the to do list
- my grown son sitting next to me for lunch
- soft, soaking rainfall
- homemade food
- sticky kisses
- coffee
- flavored creamer
- scales that give good reports
- empty clothes baskets
- calls from my married daughter
- women’s Bible study
- unlimited texting
- tiny arms around my neck for a long hug
- crushed ice
- sleeping baby that wakes happy
- freshly bathed kids
So, I guess the lesson I have learned from mothering is:
- I AM GRATEFUL FOR MY CHILDREN
