This is the day....

I know I am a blessed woman. That's why I titled my blog "Diary of a Blessed Woman". Sometimes, even in the midst of my grief, I feel like my cup is running over.

Olivia did a very precious thing the other week. We were on the way to the shrimp boil the day before Tammy's wedding and Brad and I were talking about Mother's Day and what a gift it was that we had that great day with Mama. I started crying and Olivia said, "Mama, maybe a song will help you feel better". So...she started singing, "this is the day, this is the day that the Lord has made, that the Lord has made. I will rejoice, I will rejoice and be glad in it....". So, that's what I did that day. I rejoiced with our friend Tammy. And....the next day...I rejoiced again at her wedding.

There is something to rejoice in everday.....my little girls, my husband, my friends, my family. There is so much to be thankful for. I am richly blessed.
