Lucky Blessing #2 – Head & Heart
I do not take that for granted after all I have lost! I can think and feel. (Darin knew I was all there when he saw me roll my eyes and started sign language!) I mull over my life, the future, and the kids often.

My kids have been real troopers through all of this. I am sure a few tears have been shed, however they have always stayed by my side. They have learned many things along the way. I know for certain they have been blessed.

Lucky Blessing #5 – Independence
All these tubes and apparatus have taught me to appreciate the freedom that good health gives you. (If you have tubes, I feel ya!) I took for granted the ability to walk, talk and move around as I wished.

Communicating with others is a blessing we can really take for granted. The ability to speak and get your point across to one another is so incredibly important.

Lucky Blessing #10 – Walking
It is such a blessing to get around on your own two feet. A stroke just zaps all of your energy, but its coming back, slowly. Today I put on a harness to walk hanging from a track on the ceiling. It reminded me of the baby jumpers that hang from the doorframe.

Lucky Blessings #11 – At the Right Place at the Right Time
Like cogs in clock that fit together perfectly, life works out. In hind site, which is 20/20, we see the real reason why things work out the way they do. It’s for the best, we just might to be too close to see it. God really is watching out for us it’s called tender mercies.

Lucky Blessing #12 – Nature
I have been indoors for many months, and have seen the seasons change outside my window. I have missed the beautiful serenity the wild outdoors offers us. Oh, how I’ve longed for the sweet smell of pine and the methodical babbling of a brooklet of water!

Lucky Blessing #13 – Home
Its our sanctuary, our respite. The place we all come to gather. It really is filled with love, even if sometimes you wonder. (Kids eventually do grow up!)

Lucky Blessing #15 – Heaven
Now I don’t want to get too heavy, I don’t want to preach. I’m just sharing how I see it. We were sent to earth to get a body and be tested. While we are here we are judged for the intents of hearts and our works. Some get different tests than others.

Lucky Blessing #16 – Water
I really appreciate water, especially running water! Most of you know the feeling of no showers, no dish washing, no doing laundry… you get it. Maybe your life was one, big flood. You could be so sick of water but… I appreciate getting a glass of ice water.

I speak from unwanted experience that good hearing is very important in your life! God blessed you with a crucial sense.

Lucky Blessing #18 – Sweet Treats
The sugary, decadent, concoctions are really a sweet blessing, because they just taste so good! Picture a life without anything sweet like chocolate, cheesecake, or a soft, warm cookie! (Boring!)

Lucky Blessing #19 – Sun
The sun is a blessing that gives us nutrition and revitalization. One day last week I sat out in the sun, soaking up the vitamin D, and I actually got a sunburn! Don’t forget to appreciate the big gift we have in the bright sun.

Lucky Blessing #20 – My Husband
I trust and love him with all my heart. He might talk like he is a “big” smart aleck, but he acts with love and loyalty. He demands the best for me, which gives me confidence. I know I can do it, because he knows I can do it.
