What a wonderful day. As I reflect upon it, all I can think is “I am blessed beyond measure.”

I have an amazing husband who is my partner, my soulmate and my best friend. He is the best teammate I could ask for. I am blessed beyond measure.

I have two terrific boys. I spent time with each of them today. Noah and I snuggled on the couch this morning and just enjoyed each other. Mike and I enjoyed his concert complete with his guitar and “cool” sunglasses. I went on a long walk with all 3 of my boys…Noah rode his bike. Levi was full of smiles and snuggles. They are growing so fast. I experience a miracle each day as I watch my boys grow. I am blessed beyond measure.

My husband surprised me with an i-pod shuffle. I love it! We don’t have a lot of room for “extras” in life. Even more than the gift, I’m touched by his sacrifice to buy it. I am blessed beyond measure.

We went to the cemetery today. You may know that we lost a baby 2 years ago this month. I was able to go to the marker and spend some time reflecting on this little blessing on this Mother’s day. This is my Glory Baby, whom I eagerly wait to meet and hold in Heaven. I am blessed beyond measure.

Lord, help me not to lose sight of the blessings you put in my life each day. Open my eyes to the miracles that I experience in each day. Protect me from getting so busy that I miss out on the gift of your blessings in the ordinary things of life.
