Sometimes counting blessings takes discipline. Sometimes it takes stopping to really look and take things in. Sometimes counting blessings is easy and the blessing come swooshing over you like a wave of love or a blizzard that blankets all in sight.
Whatever the situation, I'm going to count by the numbers and praise my God.
This week's numbers- #57-70
57. Spontaneous hugs and kisses from Little Man
58. Music and books making room time a fun time
59. Three year old ways- Little House on the Prairie being called Little House and the Fairy
60. Candles glowing on dark winter nights
61. Words that strike the heart and bring light like a match struck in the darkness
62. A steamy bowl of oatmeal on a snowy winter morn
63. Snow covering houses like icing and dusting trees like powdered sugar
64. Sun shining through skylights and brightening rooms after a storm
65. Searching God's Word for truth and finding precious pearls
66. The serenity of a boy taking an afternoon nap
67. A boy and a father taking an afternoon nap (on a different day from #66) and the hush of the house at this time
68. A family of "mice" under the blanket in the "mouse house"- and giggles of a three year old delighting in Mom and Dad playing along
69. Young women seeking to follow God in a world that threatens to trip them up, load them down, or hush the desire in their hearts
70. Simple joys in a church nursery as hands explore and play, hugs are given, and stories read

Little House on the Prarie was my favorite show growing up. Love your blog; your writings and thoughts!
