For the next several days I will be posting about the World Congress of Families. This year it is being held in Sydney, Australia.  Remember how we helped to raise funds for Angela to attend? She is sending daily reports of the presentations, interviews she is able to have, and more. I am excited to share with you what she is experiencing. There are so many around the world - politicians, religious leaders, community organizers, trained professionals, and others - who are dedicated to defending the family. I will try to post each day's events in order so you are not reading them backwards as you scroll down. I have broken up Angela's summaries into several posts so it isn't overwhelming to see a HUGE post. Remember, if you have any questions you would like her to ask when she gives her interviews, leave them in the comments and I will pass them along to her.

Still Counting the Blessings!

Only six more days until Thanksgiving. My son is keeping track. After counting down for his birthday he decided it was very fun to count so now he is counting down to Thanksgiving too.

And me? I'm still counting my blessings, one by one.





Here are a couple of pages to help you count your blessings too. They are actually to help my children to be more aware of everything: sights, smells, sounds, etc. But they are also good reminders for adults. Sometimes we forget that smelling a new book or hearing a knock at the door can be blessings.

Both pages are exactly the same except the second one is numbered, in case you have some like I do, who really like to count.Click on the graphics to go to the pdf file.

Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you'll get one thing done. ☺ There, don't you feel better?

Please leave a comment! I enjoy hearing your thoughts, whether you agree with me or not. If we all agreed on everything how boring would that be? Worse than eating white chocolate, because it's fake. So be real, be yourself.
