A healthy dose of daily praise...


****************
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)

  1. Congratulations on the ice cream contest. You mentioned you have an "unofficially adopted granddaughter" from your Church. I have been blessed with unofficially adopted girls ....they are my bonus daughter and twin bonus granddaughters.
