Okay, I've been bumming around the house today, feeling kind of sorry for myself because I don't have a car and I have kids who want to be constantly entertained and I'm not feeling super great, blah, blah, blah.
So I knelt down and said a prayer, asking Heavenly Father to help me out.
Well, I got the answer to my prayer by coming across an update about a beautiful mother named Carol who delivered a baby girl (their second) and she had the most HORRIBLE things happen afterward. Her story, however, is one that inspires me and helps me be grateful for healthy kids and a healthy body and the fact that I can run stairs for exercise (even if I don't want to).
Check out Carol's story.
In other words, Heavenly Father was telling me to get a reality check and be grateful for my many blessings!
I feel humbled now.

Thanks for the post Elizabeth, I think I needed to experience a moment of gratitude as well.
Thanks for the post. It's such a good reminder. It can be so hard to do it in the moment.
So I just went and read the story. That sure does put things into perspective! How awful!
Woah! I am feeling very humbled by that story. I cannot imagine. I knwo I need to do a better job of counting my blessings, so thanks for the reminder:0)
