Innumerable Blessings

I am thankful for and praising God because: My husband is energetic, lean and easy with a smile. There is different people and personalities to make life interesting. My son has auburn hair and freckles like his mom but got his dad's dark eyes. My son is healthy and happy. I have a mess making short leg dog with sweet eyes and who likes to play. My parents are able to be near and stayed together for almost fifty years. I am glad the weather has seasons and leaves are falling. I am glad the creator made coccoa beans for chocolate. I am glad my husband took my advice and grew a mustache many years ago. I am glad I did NOT get that tattoo! I do want grandchildren and as many as possible.
