Our Blessings Jar

Way back in December I told you about the blessings jar. I promised that I'd show you a pic of ours once I finally got it prettied. I must say, I'm very happy with my work even if it took 4 months and 7 minutes to complete :)

I mean really, have you ever seen such a pretty pickle jar?

This really has been helpful for me. Sometimes when I'm determined to pity myself for whatever silly situation I'm in, jotting down "Mom painted Jack's room. 4/6" is all I need to remember how blessed I really am.

Last night I wrote, "MOPS. I love MOPS." Because I do! And it's been a huge blessing. ((So PLEASE, First Baptist, bring it back next fall!!!))

How have you been blessed recently? Our Father deserves the recognition!
