Gratitude {Day 10}

Today I am grateful for Humility.

hu-mil-i-ty

noun

a modest or low view of ones own importance; humbleness

I love experiences that remind me that I should be more humble.

Experiences such as being...

a human.

a mother.

a wife.

a friend.

Accidents happen. sometimes more than once.

Such as my troubles in the kitchen.

Well it happened again on J's Birthday.

I tried the blasted Giant Cupcake pan again, this time I looked up the directions online.

It was a better experience than the last but not perfect.

This time I salvaged what I could instead of throwing the darn thing away.

Yeah... it's not pretty but the m&m's were I nice touch.

And this is what matters anyways.

and it tasted alright.

I am not perfect, and that's ok.

I cannot control anything other than myself, and that's ok.

I can do hard things, but cannot do all things, and that's ok.

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.

I am not yet a master at Humility, but I am working on it.

I am thankful for humbling experiences because they are learning opportunities.

They remind me of WHO is really in charge. :)
