Week Three!

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day! I hope you’re enjoying it, whether you’re at work or home with family. I’m lucky enough to be spending the day with my midgets and my hubby(whose job was rained out). We are watching movies and playing with legos and staying in our PJs. It’s such a blessing!

It also leads to this weeks’ #53ListsProject blog. Week three is all about the happiest moment of your life so far.

1. When I was a kid, I found a wonderful friend in Jesus and I asked Him into my heart. Since that day, I’ve never been alone, I’ve never been without someone to listen and someone to care. There is no such thing as a perfect life, but I’ve been very blessed so far. He gave me a voice and I love to sing His praises.
2. The day I was married. I broke the rules and married my boss and it was the best decision I ever made. Our wedding was unconventional and thrown together, but we had bigger things to do- like LIVE! We got married and haven’t looked back. The cool thing about that is that my mom and my step-dad were married two days prior. We all celebrated together.
3. The days that my children were born. Each one was different and all three babies were unique. I couldn’t be prouder of my kids- they are pretty great, if I do say so myself.
4. The day I held the first book with my name on it as author. It was a life-long dream and, with a team of wonderful people helping me, I made it happen. Now I get to help other writers do the same!
5. The days I went into business with my best friends- My husband and Cheryl. These two people mean the world to me and I’m so very blessed to work with them and do life together.
6. The birthdays of my nieces and nephew! Aunti JoJo loves you all!
7. The home-going of my step-father, Bill. Now, you might think this is odd but stay with me. On that day and the days that followed, I found my strength and I was blessed to take care of my mother the way she has always taken care of me. In our family’s darkest moments, we came together and overcame. Bill died quickly, here one moment and gone the next. As far as death goes, he was lucky and I’m thankful for his swift passing. Many are not so fortunate.

Now it’s your turn. Think about the days that shaped you- and let me know!
