Counting My Blessings (formerly know as Thankful Five) is something I like to do to remind myself of all the wonderful things I have in my life.

Some of the blessings I am counting this week are:

• Our backyard – even in a subdivision there are many birds who visit our backyard. Just sitting out there you can hear a wide variety of bird songs, and chatter
• My mother – she is an incredible person, who is strong, and caring. She has had a very difficult last few months, but she is getting through it.
• College – I am loving the challenge that college is presenting me.
• Truth – when someone takes the time to tell me the truth about myself – with love and respect – it means a great deal to me.
• Music – I have been listening to more music lately, and I am enjoying it.
