The 52 Blessings Project
About 52 Blessings
Once a week post a photo of something you are most grateful for. This gives us a chance to reflect on the good things we have learned from or that have made us better in our everyday lives or things we just enjoy! I think everyone needs to be more grateful for what they have now days instead of always thinking about what we want! This is one of the things we can do to be more gracious people. It will be like a photo gratitude journal.

I am so excited for this new year! I feel that it will be good one. To start off the good year, we are expecting baby #4 in May! I can't believe I will have 4 children, sometimes I start to panic a little just thinking about it. BUT.....everyone tells me that having 4 is no different than 3???? So I am hanging on to that impossible hope. I know that many bloggers pick a word for the year, and I thought that I had decided my word would be "LIVE" but maybe it should be "SURVIVE" because that is kinda how I feel~like I am in survival mode and I can't imagine it getting any better with a new baby around. The problem with 'survive' is that it really is a negative word, at least concerning what it means to me. So maybe I will stick with LIVE and it will help me to enjoy life, to count my blessings, to be a better wife and mother, and most important to take time for myself and LIVE so I can be better at all the other things!
On another exciting note....I have started a new business. I will be making a change from a Director with The Pampered Chef to a new consultant with a great, new company....SIMPLYFUN!!!! You can check out my website at www.reach4theskye.simplyfun.com Did you know that Plato said, "You can learn more about a person in an hour of play that in a lifetime of conversation." What a great thing the power of play is to relationships. At Simplyfun our mission is to "promote the importance of play and create life long memories that enhance the quality of life for our Consultants, customers, and employees." I love this company and all the products.
I tried to post some pictures, that will have to wait until my next blog, for some reason I keep getting an error.grrrrr.
I am going with my Mom, Sister, and SIL to the Bridal Expo today to hopefully get some planning done for Meghans April wedding (yes, I will be 8+ months pregnant and her Bridesmaid-augh!)

Congratulations!
Sounds like a great goal...to remind yourself of your blessings! It reminds me of Pres. Eyring's conference talk about writing down in a journal each night "how you've seen the Lord's hand that day". I'm trying to do that every night...although some nights I forget. :)
Good luck with baby #4! Have you found out what you're having? Or are you keeping it as a surprise?!!

Thats a great idea from Pres. Eyring. I think that I will add that to my goals. Thanks for sharing!
Congratulations Dugger Family! I am sorry that our family did not stop by and say hi to all of you. At least my Kyle got to see you all briefly at church. Jenna was NOT liking nursery that day and did not like the Sunday school class either. I am so glad that you started with your updates again! Talk to you later, Sarah
Congratulations on baby #4!! That is so exciting! Do you know what you are having yet? I think everyone I know is pregnant this year...(except me). And the new business sounds fun! Do your kids get to test out the toys? And Meghan's getting married?!? I guess it's been a while since I talked to you...I want to know all the details!Ü How fun!
That is a great idea.... I do check back evey so often to see if you have added anything.
