Counting blessings

day 8

day 16

day 21


In this month of Thanksgiving, I've been photographing each day something I'm thankful for. It's a good practice and forces me to pause daily to find something, large or small, for which to be grateful.

But it's sometimes hard to translate into words, or pictures, what's really in your heart. Though I've mostly taken photos of things, it's the intangibles that are the true blessings.

I'm so thankful for the way I was raised, for the happy childhood I was given. I'm grateful for my own little family, my husband and children, who mean more to me than they will ever know. I'm thankful for all the undeserved grace I've received, for being loved, for friendships and new adventures.

Though we've had our share of struggles these past few months, it's all just part of living. The endless list of blessings reminds me that life is good!

Here's hoping your list is long as well. Happy Thanksgiving!

Grateful

day 1

day 3

day 4

November has arrived! In this month of Thanksgiving, I'm participating in the Gratitude Project: 30 days of remembering all I'm grateful for. It's easy to miss all the little blessings of life, so I'm documenting one each day this month. Won't you join me? Tell me something you're grateful for today.

P.S. Be sure to check out the flickr pool for inspiration!
