Blessed

I am having moments a lot lately where I have to step back and truly thank God for the blessings in my life. I have more than I could ever want or need, yet lose sight of that often. I take the small things for granted and need to remind myself how blessed I really am. Every time I get all stressed out because Lainey acted a fool in public, or she throws a tantrum, I just have to sit back...chill for a minute...take a deep breath and remember that I am lucky to have a baby girl who is doing all those things.

I think being in the "blog world" now I come in contact with a little too much pain and sickness. It seems everywhere you look someone has lost a child, has a seriously ill child, or cannot even have a child. Even when I think I am having such a horrible day with Lainey, I have to remember how blessed I am to be having that moment with her. She's an almost two year old--of course she is going to be moody from time to time...aren't we all?!?! She is our little miracle baby, and I love every moment I have with her. Praise God for my baby girl!
