Gratitude Friday

There is no denying the fact that we are living in a WEIRD time right now. There is also no denying that a heart of gratitude can really lift your spirits.

Some days it might be REALLY hard to look around you and find things to be grateful for. I’ve been there. You are not alone in this season of life if you feel like there is little to be happy about. But let’s try to dig deep and find those happy moments. They are out there. Pinky promise.

I am going to try to make this a “thing” on my blog, but really, I’m the worst at staying true to my word on these things, so don’t hold your breath. HOWEVER! For THIS Friday I am here. I am showing up and I am sharing about things I am GRATEFUL for.

I am grateful for a wiggly baby girl inside of me. The anxiety that comes with pregnancy after loss is INTENSE and each time I feel her move it is a little sense of reassurance. I still can’t believe it. And I still say each and every day “ALL GLORY TO GOD!”

I am grateful for small town living. The world is crazy right now. And scary. And I am just SO grateful to live in a small town with really really good people.

I am thankful for food storage and space to plant gardens. I get such a joy out of knowing we have a food supply for our family if anything were to happen. I love that we get to enjoy planning out a garden for the year and knowing we will have a time to harvest in the fall. It isn’t some glorious garden. But it’s ours and we do it together and we love it! And I love my seed loving husband and all his knowledge. 😉

I am grateful for the gift of photography. I set a goal for myself when it comes to sessions booked and I am excited about that. I know we will be having a baby this year and the business will slow down, but I am still so grateful for this gift. I love being able to capture people in unique and candid ways. It is such a blessing to me.

What are you grateful for this week? Today? This moment? I’d love to hear!
