I am sorry for the ridiculously long time gap between my last post and this one! I just haven’t had the “blogging bug” lately!! Holly (and all of you other OneLuckyLady blog followers that hang on to my every word..err, at least glance every now and then to give me reason for posting) I can hear you now, “excuses, excuses”, right?! Ok ok, I read you loud and clear. I vow to never go this long between blog posts again! Are we back on good terms now? 
In Holly’s attempts to give me the blogging bug she suggested a few things worth blogging about, one of which stood out more so than others…. “101 Ways I am Blessed”. We have discussed before that I should rename my blog OneBlessedLady and I would love to but the WordPress gods seem to think once you pick a name your stuck with it! But back to her genius idea, today I will begin a series of several (however many it takes) posts naming 101 people/ things/events/etc that I am blessed to have in my life/experienced! Don’t worry, I will include random day-to-day updates on baby girl Paisley, the handsome hubby and other Columbus, MS goings-ons as they become blog worthy!! I have no rules for how many things I will list in any one post simply because I don’t want to force them! I will write about them as they come to me and influence me in a way that makes me say “Thank You Lord for blessing me again!!” Some will be insignificant and seem pointless to you, others will be more grand and obvious, but at the end of the day blessings are blessings and we need to be thankful for each and every one!!!
101 Ways I am Blessed
#1. I am blessed to have friends and family that care enough about my life (and Justin’s) to repeatedly ask for blog updates!!!
Some of these ppl are in this very (poor quality) picture!
#2. I was blessed to have amazingly strong, compassionate and beautiful female role models growing up as a kid. Between my Mom, my two sisters and my Mimi I have learned strength, individuality, faith, perseverance, humor, and the kind of mom I want to be some day! You girls are some tough cookies and I LOVE it!!
Canton- It's a Godwin girls tradition and I miss it!!
#3. I was blessed to have such a life changing experience as a student teacher. I met one of the most amazing teachers this world will ever see. She has more faith and passion invested in what she does every day than any one I’ve ever met and you could see the results of it written all over the faces of her students! I could not have had a better role model and example of what I hope and pray to be some day for even one student! And the kids, they will forever hold a VERY, VERY special place in my heart that no one could ever replace!! KEMP KIDDOS ARE THE KOOLEST!!
The wonderful and fabulous Angela with the sweet and precious Jamarcus!
#4. I am blessed to have the most comfy bed to crawl into each and every night….which is precisely what I’m going to do in about 5 minutes after I save this post, brush my teeth and get on some jammies!
(Thank you Holly for the wonderful blogging inspiration!)
