Counting My Blessings…

I am so blessed, well and truly blessed!

I am not saying it because something happened, I didn’t win the lottery or anything. I just feel extremely blessed for every little thing in our lives, for having such an amazing family, a supportive husband and an adorable son.

They are not perfect, I am not perfect, but together we make a very strong and caring family, full of love and respect for one another. My family in Brazil, although they are so far away, they are always in touch, sending me daily emails, showing that they care and they are thinking of us.

Little man’s painting, pretty much summarises why I feel I am so blessed. I am grateful that we have somewhere to live, lovely food to eat, but most of all, that we have one another and together we can appreciate the smell of the beautiful flowers along the way. It’s all about the little pleasures in life, priceless moments that money can’t buy.

Over the weekend, we went to our local park, played in the playground, had a picnic and fed the ducks. We had such a lovely afternoon, and little man’s highlight was feeding the ducks, he was giggling the whole time, saying to the ducks ‘I hope you are hungry, I have some food for you. Come on and eat your food’. He was so happy, and it made me realise that we don’t need much to be happy and have a great time together.

Here I am counting my blessings, I am grateful for all the little things we have and all the precious moments we share together.

Enjoy the rest of the bank holiday weekend!
