Some mornings, I just wake up with a heart filled with gratitude for so many blessings.
Thank you Heavenly Father, for the great goodness and beauty and blessings that surround me at this time.

The Ability to TYPE!
Every Wednesdsay, I help at the family history center. It's great to help the people there, and I enjoy it.
Today, I worked with a man - probably mid 70's. As a career, he had worked in broadcasting at KSL radio/tv. I'm sure that he was fantastic at his job, because he was fun, delightful, interesting.
But, he couldn't type. And, in this day and age, that is such a huge handicap. When he was in school, lots of boys didn't do the typing thing...nothing against him, it was the day and age.
Watching him painstakingly type in just one name made me so incredibly grateful for the ability - not that I'm good or fast or accurate - to type.
That has been a great, great blessing in my life.
And, I'm thankful for computers.

Spring is such an amazing time of year, so many sights to gladden the heart.
Thank you, Heavenly Father, for my eyesight.

Easter/Conference
WOW, what a spiritual feast...
Conference was absolutely fantastic!
Inspiring speakers, beautiful music.
If I were to pick a theme, it would definitely have been a focus on the family and the responsibility for parents to teach their children in the home.
I am thankful for a prophet and leaders.

Daughters
I'm very grateful for J & K. They are different, yet similar.
Both are wonderful. I'm proud of them.

Mobility
Every time I spend a few moemtns with Sylvia, I am reminded what a great blessing it is to be mobile; to move, to walk, to use my arms and hands..
It is something that is taken for granted so often.
Thank you, Heavenly Father, that at this point in my life, I can still get around fairly well.
I am grateful for that.....

An Income
It's small, it's not a lot, but it's certainly adequate.
And, we are able to live each month with our pensions, and occasionally we save money so that we can do extra things.
What a great, great blessing it is to have worked hard for many years, and then to have an income.
I'm very very thankful for that.
