Once upon a time I was discouraged.

Once upon a time I was discouraged. 

 I don't get discouraged very often, but it definitely happened this week.  I was having a rough morning.  Savvy didn't sleep great the night before so Geoff and I were both very tired.  (I am seeing more and more how sleep can totally effect/change your mood).  She is usually a great little sleeper, so when she doesn't sleep well, it's almost like the world may end. 

Ok, not really....but really. 

It was about noon and I was tired, peed on and covered in spit up not once, but twice.  I was feeling guilty because I didn't get Savannah's Valentines done the day before.  Looking back on this, it doesn't seem as intense as it actually was, but I think a crying baby makes a situation seem so much harder. 

 As I was totally feeling sorry for myself, Savannah, and on the verge of tears, I realized I needed to remember all of my blessings.  I have so much to be grateful for and when I start listing the blessings I have in my life, the hard things melt away immediately and I can't help but realize that my life is AWESOME. 

I have the gospel in my life.

I know my Heavenly Father and Savior love me.

I have an amazing husband that loves, comforts, supports, helps and challenges me.

I have a beautiful, healthy baby girl that I get to stay home with.  I get to see her smiles, hear her laughter and see her grow and reach different milestones all day.

I can have children.

I have a healthy body.

I have a Dad watching over me from Heaven.

I have a nice home that is warm and a place where we feel safe and protected.

I have a car that runs well.

I get to make people feel pretty!

My husband has a good job that supports us.

I have food to eat.

My needs are met and a lot of my wants are met as well.

I have 2 great families.

I live in a great, safe neighborhood and have good friends.

I could go on all day.

SO BLESSED.
