Reflections

Today started just as any other day until I got on my Facebook. I was scrolling through people's posts and came upon this:

I thought, "how true." Many of my friends are currently doing the 30 day challenge of showing their gratitude. I laughed and moved on and saw some other links to pictures and blogs. After my tour of Facebook, I went to my blog to see if any of my friends had posted anything new. Sure enough there were some and I read them. Maddie Stevens wrote a post about how grateful she was for her blessings in life. That touched me. I then started to think about all the blessings that I had received. Many of them I had forgotten about.
Later I went to the Temple and the whole time I was brought back to the blessings in my life. I often thank my Heavenly Father for them and move on. Today I had a rush of emotions of how blessed I am and all those memories flooded my mind.
It seems today that my Facebook has also been flooded of good reads that also help me remember. I just read a blog about "It matters who you marry".  I encourage everyone to read it, married or not. I was immediately thinking of my husband, Logan. I am so very grateful for the love he shows me and care and guidance he give me.  I had to go through so much growing up and trials to be able to know him and even deserve him. I tell him I love him everyday, but I'm so grateful and so blessed it never feels like it is enough.

I am grateful for the Gospel and the impact it has had on my life, there is no doubt in my mind that I wouldn't be were I am today without it.

I am grateful for my parents and that they cared enough to teach me.
  
Even if that meant that I needed some type of reprimanding.


I am grateful for my brothers and sister for their examples they have set for me.


I am grateful for Melissa. For the friendship and love she has always freely gave. 


I am grateful for my Rindlisbacher family. They have opened their arms and treat me like their own. 

Here is one with Craig, Laura, and Colton.
Thank you to the rest of my friends and family who are there and cheering me on! I can feel your love for me!

So I did turn in to one of those people who in the month of November show their gratitude publicly but at least you all know that I grateful and trying hard to remember my blessings!
