The Blessings

I find myself blessed in so many ways I can't even begin to count them.  I often take many of those for granted.  Today simple things in life filled my heart with job.

1. Listening to several ladies next to our work sight laughing and talking.  Laughter in any language is contagious.  It was a joy to hear and a true blessing today.

2. Being invited to play football (soccer) today.  4 kids age 5-6, 3 kids age 8-10 and myself.  (kid at heart).  I had my work boots on, jeans, and a hat.  No I couldn't run after them and go toe to toe so I played Goalie.  They only scored 7 goals on me, but it was also difficult because two if the younger kids wanted me to toss them in the air and catch them.  So I had to multi task.  A blessing on a rocky dirt soccer field.  OH, that was also after chopping 300 cinder blocks in half.

3.  Telling jokes with each other while standing in the back of a small Toyota truck while viewing 3 different Volcano's, one of which has smoke rolling out of it.

As most of you who have participated with this amazing organization, you too I'm sure have been Transformed by the rewards of your hard work and sacrifice to make such a difference in someone else's life.  

Feeling blessed with life's little little moments.
