Blessings...Frustrations

Blessings...
...fresh carrots, a chicken, oranges and a goose from "el campo" (Oscar's sister's farm), the kids back in school, nice weather and beautiful flowering trees preparing for spring, new sandals for Edson, goodies for people in BaƱando, baby clothes for Silvina, a 40 cup coffee maker and a 5 gallon-stainless steel soup kettle, healthy kids, new books, call from a U.S. friend on my cell phone, a new cook book, marshmellows, a battery-operated train set for Edson, chocolate chips, and...ohhhh so much more!
Frustrations...
...a telephone line that doesn't work, not enough time, computer problems, people problems sometimes at school...whew!...glad there's not much more on this list!

Did you ever try thanking God for your frustrations? Some people don't have a phone, computer, friends or even a school to attend! (PS I know you are thankful. So am I)

I loved your list! The simple things, the miracles, all of it. The frustrations can even be blessings. ~Rebekah
