I really didn't know what to write about today. I woke up in the middle of the night and tossed and turned some. When my alarm went off I didn't want to get up. Now I'm sitting here in my sweet little cozy air conditioned house counting my blessings.... There are so many I wouldn't ever be able to list them all.
Looking back where I came from...... we definitely were not the richest folks around. Sometimes looking at old pictures I've noticed our clothes didn't even match. But back then because of all the love my Momma & Daddy gave us I never noticed. When all we had for supper was cornbread and sweet milk, we thought that was normal. I didn't realize till I had kids of my own hard it sometimes is to provide for them. Not just the things they want, but the things they need. We never missed a meal tho and we were always clean and my Momma ironed most of what we wore. So were we poor??? No I don't think we were after all. A day never went by that they forgot to tell us they loved us. I'm so grateful for a loving family and a Momma and Daddy that taught us to Love and how to work. Thank you Sir for my BlessingS then and now. I'm Blessed to be a Blessing!! Y'all have a GREAT day too! Love ya oh so much Carol/MJ Psm

Money doesn't determine wealth. I'm always broke but I have 3 amazing kids who love me unconditionally, my Lil George and her family, my Bubba and his family, my south Texas crew, my Hogner family, friends, my health and a great career. I'd say I'm pretty wealthy! Thank you for reminding me! I sure love you!
