So, so blessed

Me again. I don’t usually post more than once a day, sometimes not more than once a week, but my heart is so full right now. Does it seem to you that when you start counting your blessings God tips the bucket and starts pouring out more?

Today our church ladies group, Sisters in Christ, treated us to a catered Mothers, Daughters, Sisters and Friends banquet. My mom is celebrating Mother’s Day in heaven, I don’t have a daughter and my beautiful granddaughters are five states away. But that didn’t stop me from enjoying a delicious baked chicken dinner with sisters and friends

Complete with a yummy dessert!

Our guest speaker gave the loveliest talk about growing up in the foster care system without a mother of her own, and all the women who stepped up to be mothers to her over the years.

I even won a door prize this year!

Yesterday I mentioned my poison ivy dilemma to a coworker in passing. She often hikes with her children and told me she’s unwittingly walked through gobs of it and never had a problem. This afternoon this angel in a black Jeep pulled in my driveway to take care of it for me. She is a garden ninja! Within moments every trace of that hated enemy was gone from my flower bed

I am feeling like one blessed girl today!
