Mondays are full days, the mornings spent getting back into routine after the weekend and getting focused and organized for the coming week, the afternoons helping our oldest daughter by picking up our two youngest granddaughters from school and watching them until she gets home from work. Actually getting my weekly gratitude post published on Monday makes me feel on top of the game! And here it is!
***************
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)
