Continually thankful...

Popping in quickly on this MLK day to post my weekly gratitude list.  My oldest daughter is ill so I'm taking care of our two youngest granddaughters for her since they are home from school today.

****************

Since 2009 I've been counting my blessings thanks to the prompting of Ann Voskamp.

 I continue to count my thanks

piling up gratitude day by day

in my journal.

(and capturing some of my blessings via my camera or iPhone)
