One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp

I did finish a great book on our trip called " A Thousand Gifts" by Ann Voscamp:

One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are by Ann Voskamp


It took me months to read this book.  But, it was one of those books where you could only read a little bit at a time.  I recommend this book to all of us ladies who might need a little cheering up.  The author finds some happiness by counting all her blessings each day.  She makes a point to recognize all the small and large, significant and 'insignificant' things that God puts in our path each day.  Little things like a flower blooming, a Harvest moon, a beautiful bird, our children's laughter, the smell of fresh bread, the berries on the vine....anything and everything - if only we SAW it and recognized it for what it actually is, a gift, from Him.  Anyway-- I finally finished this good book and can return it to the poor woman who lent it to me!  I've had to email her to make sure it was okay that I was taking so long 3 times!  She has another copy, so she was fine with me going my own pace...luckily!
