  1. I have so much to be grateful this week. I am grateful that Steven’s accident, although severe, could be so much worse. I am grateful that I have two older children to help out with all that needs to be done. I am grateful that Steven is home with us again, and although bed ridden, is still the leader of our family.

  2. This is beautiful, Rachel- and what a beautiful, wonderful girl! <3

  3. That is a beautiful post Rachel. What gorgeous eyes your daughter has!!
    I find myself complaining too and need the constant reminder to be grateful. 🙂
    Thank you for linking to me, it always feels like an honor to be on your blog.

    Love, Taryn

    A great post. My oldest is quite talkative too, and I always need to remind myself of the kindness oozing out of her, too. Your post did this beautifully. Hope you have a great start to your week.

    What glow in your daughter’s eyes. And what a lovely post to think about. I have a child who is quick to forgive, so loving. I need to take cues from him.

  11. What a sweet message for your little sweetie.

    I loved the quote. It’s obviously powerful if it helped to inspire your beautiful sentiment. I’m grateful for all of the gratitude I’m finding while looking!

    Blessings, Debbie
