Usually I just make a list of blessings for this semi-regular series, but these past few days, there have been a few blessings I would like to write a bit more on.
1. DS and DD. I have 2 awesome kids. Yes, they are teenagers, and there are *some days*..... ;-) but I love them to pieces. We had a fire here in town a few days back that very sadly took the lives of 2 young children. It gave this particular Mother's Day a whole new meaning.
2. My church family. We have been attending this church for a bit over 3 years now, and I am still amazed at how much at home I feel here. We came from the church I had been born into, and I never felt this accepted and loved there. I am reminded of this again not only with the great time we had at the Mother's Day banquet, but also by my Sunday School teacher (also an assistant part-time pastor) who asked if he could pick up my mower and have it serviced for me by a student at the high school where he teaches. It is just overwhelming sometimes to be a part of a fellowship of true believers who actually live their lives for Christ not just on Sundays but very day.
3. A Target gift card. This was such a surprise. I have worked for my current employer for almost 7 years, and they have never done anything to recognize us for Medical Transcriptionists Week or even Christmas aside from a "thanks, you're great" email. In yesterday's postal mail, there was an envelope from them, and inside was a note saying they wanted to acknowledge the staff's hard work with a token of appreciation, enclosing a $15 Target card. I'm still a little flabbergasted! We don't have a Target in town, but I'm sure I can force myself down to Columbus to go shopping sometime! lol
