There aren't many shows that I really get hooked on but the Biggest Loser does it to me. I don't know why I get so into this show but I love it!
This past Tuesday was the premier and I watched it late, like on Thursday night I think. It made me really think about all that I have in my life. There is a lady on there who had a very tragic story. Two years ago she was married with a 5 year old daughter and a 2 week old son. They got hit by a car that was going over 100MPH and they all died. Holy Cow! That poor lady has lost everything!
It really made me think about how blessed I am. The first thought through my mind was that I am so lucky. I don't think it is luck at all. I am just truly "Blessed"!
I have a husband who is my best friend. We have so much fun together and I love him so much. He is such a hard worker and has provided for us the whole time we have been married. We are going on 6 years now and he has put everything he has into providing for us. I am amazed at how well he has done too. I have not worked a single day in the six years since we have been married. Wow! He is so loving and the best dad I could ever ask for our kids. I am amazed by him everyday!
I have been blessed with the oppertunity to have children. What a blessing! We brought our first little boy into our family and he has kept us busy ever since. He is so smart and curious. Such a joy to have in my life!
Then we were blessed with our second son. Wow what a cute kid. I would've never thought kids could be so different, but they are. He is so mellow and such a sweet little boy.
Then came our sweet little girl. Wow what a little drama queen! She is so fun and has such a personality. She definately knows what she wants and knows exactly how to get it.
Then we have extended family who support us and love us. Also, a home to live in, friends to enjoy, exciting adventures to explore, etc...
The last thing I thought about as I watched this lady stuggle to tell her story on TV was how blessed I am to know the things that I know. To know that I am loved by my Heavenly Father. To know that I can be forgiven of the mistakes I have made. To know that I can live with my family after this life is over.
I am so blessed!

ReplyDeleteYou're right Keeper is a great guy! He holds a special place in my heart.
PS. You are wrong though... I bet you have worked EVERYDAY of those six years (especially after your kids were born;) J/K, I know what you meant :P
