Have to VS Blessed to



I'm a LIST girl. I love the feeling of crossing things off the list.  I feel so accomplished when the list is done!

Confession : sometimes I add things to the list I've already done, just so I can cross them off - he he he

One list I always have running through my head is the 'Have To's'.  It doesn't matter if your a parent, spouse, partner, child, sibling, friend, etc.  We all have responsibilities!!!   I'm going to try and challenge myself to change my thinking from a have to list to a blessed to list, cause to be honest, I am blessed.

Have To:
Get boys up & ready for the day
Get Zach's lunch packed & to school
Get Kadin to school on his set days
Get myself to the gym at least 3 days a week
Get groceries
Clean house
Laundry
Trash
Dishes
Run errands
Cook dinner
Zach to swimming & hockey
Snacks, tuition & helper for school
Keep track of Birthdays & special days - cards, presents, parties, etc.

Get to spend time with my husband, children, incredible family & friends.

Just a few years ago, some of this looked difficult & impossible, but TODAY it's not. So Thankful for God's ability and graciousness to restore me.

Here's to a blessed heart & a better way of thinking!


Blessings.
