the blessings.

 to put it plainly, this week has been hard.

but every single day has come a blessing.

it may have seemed small, tiny, maybe insignificant.

but i noticed, to me it mattered.

things like a visiting teacher inviting me over to watch hgtv.

or a friend i haven't seen in a while letting me know she stopped by.

reading the scriptures and finding messages meant just for me.

sitting outside in the sunshine.

mom posting an amazing talk on her blog.

being able to pray.

crafting afternoons.

derek.

reminders that i am truly a child of God.

and that even i am not forgotten.

i'm so grateful for the blessings.
