Last Sunday on the Internet, I heard The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square sing, “... you will fall asleep counting your blessings instead of sheep.” This morning I continued counting, as my companion Kay & I are very blessed.
Leading our Colonial Court family home evening last Monday, I asked our neighbors, “What can you be grateful for this Thanksgiving? What are you writing in your gratitude journal this week that may be shared?” I read in iPhone Notes, “... two of many positive constants in my life — the sun rises every morning, and the temple is always there [across the street], helping me come closer to the Savior. I am thankful for our Heavenly Father’s love for His children.”
This morning I added to Gratitude Journal:
“Thanksgiving Day 2019, Herriman Utah
Good road conditions despite huge snowfall; safe travel both ways — I was protected. Our son Spencer, daughter Katie, and their spouses provided a marvelous, traditional feast and get-together. ... I’m grateful for my forever family — parents, wife Kay, and our posterity.”
There is so much I could add here, but this blog keeps it short. A parting question: Do you count sheep to fall asleep?
