Counting many blessing...and knowing that they are there!

Good morning y'all...hehe!  I am in a giddy mood this morning.  We have snuck away to Grandma & Grandpa Gray's for the holiday weekend.  We had a long...long...long trip here.  We left Friday after work, around 5:00.  The Pollies were so excited about our adventure.  About half way into the trip we go stuck, literally.  There had been a terrible wreck on the interestate in the mountains, right at the NC/TN boarder.  I "heard" through the truckers and people talking that it was a 10 car pile-up a long with 2 semi's jack-knived.  They had a real hard time getting emergency vehicles to the accident.  I am sure that there were some major injuries, we had a 2 1/2 hour wait, so we cut the car off and took a nap!  We were stuck.  We definately count this as a blessing, that we were not involved or harmed in the accident. It was a blessing that Aubrey felt the need to have pray time for the people involved, I am so thankful she understands the power of prayer, and how wonderful our God is.

This brings me to something that has weighed hard on my heart, these past few weeks.  I would like to invite you the this website to visit :  The Mouro Family.  This is an amazing story, and this family continues to need your prayers.  The husband was a physician in the clinic where I work, our clinic has lifted them up high in prayer.  Their family has a new story to add to their life, that is a true testiment in the power of prayer.  Please spend time reading this blog, and watch the day-to-day progress.  Those of you with small children will be in tears, I promise!  Our God is an amazing God!

I again, would like to re-recommend the book I read a month a go,
this is another amazing story. 

Many things in the past month have happened that continued to awe us, things that started out worrying us that then ended up OK - we take these as wonderful blessings.
Dad and his surgery/heartattack, Aunt Ro Ro and her blessing, the birth of sweet Reese Monroe,Ms. Norma with her surgery/heart attack,The Mouro family, it is amazing.  I am sure that I am leaving out something, however I know how blessed we all are. 

Which brings me to another book I am reading:
  I will leave the story to you.  Just know, it is a different kind of bucket list!
It has me really thinking, and praising God for the many blessings that we recieve.

I have had it on my heart to share my thoughts in a post, it has just been difficult finding the time this week to sit and share.  However, we are having a little down time here at Grandma's and Grandpa's, it is so nice!
