Christmas Eve gratitude

In the midst of my small little world, it is very easy for my heart to grumble and complain about my everyday trials.  This year more than ever I am aware of the tremendous sufferings of those around me.  Slain children, a mother dying prematurely, a young husband's battle with a merciless brain tumor.  The list could go on.

This morning as I was cooking breakfast, I took a look around me and knew that I had many, many undeserved things to be grateful for.  My husband's mess, the steaming waffles, content baby chomping on his banana, and siblings playing peacefully together are just a few.
