One Thousand Gifts…the fortitude I need for tough days…

Today, I felt as if I was praying a lot of thanks into my kid’s lives. Thankfulness for school, safety, friends, creativity, blankies, God’s love…and I knew that I needed to speak it into my own life today too. I needed to reflect on the past two weeks and the gifts I was given. Documenting them gives them power, meaning, and fortitude for the tough days…tired days…frustrating days…
