I began counting my gifts last year. It wasn't as easy as it should have been and I stopped counting at 27.
Then, the book came out.
I bought it and I have begun my list again. This time I feel ready for the change. My heart is open and yearning to be changed. Is yours?

Crisply ironed sheets

a warm towel fresh out of the dryer

the weight of a baby sleeping on your chest

the smell of a new book

the smell of new shoes

The sound of bible pages turning as Big Daddy reads beside me at night

I can hardly wait til my book arrives so I can learn to count ... without stopping.

I started counting this past Thanksgiving but stopped before Christmas. I have begun counting once again.
Ann's story and words drip with God's beauty. She has encouraged and inspired me in some of my most panicked moments.
I started and stopped too! Now I have the mind, and grace to begin again. It's nice to know I'm not alone.
Don't you love the book?
