As 2016 comes to a close, I can't help but to think of all the ways my family and I have been blessed.   2016 wasn't the easiest year, but if I am honest I can't recall a year that has been super easy.  Life for me has been all about being stretched, bent, pulled, tugged, and whatever other verb that has to do with being uncomfortable.  As I look back at 2016,  I am reflecting on the moments and people who have brought me joy.

16 Moments, Opportunities, and People I Am Grateful for ...

I could look at 2016 and dwell on all I didn't accomplish or the moments that brought pain instead I am choosing to see my life through the lens of joy.

What are your grateful for?  How did 2016 fare for you and your family?
