Blessed

These are all words of gratitude. It is one of our families core beliefs.

I believe that the true attitude of gratitude connects us with our source. I also believe that our attitude of gratitude lead us to manifesting our dreams!

We were, for 2 years, a family of 6 (plus 3 dogs) living in a 2 bedroom 1 bath trailer in small, quiet (for the most part) trailer park. The trailer was an inheritance from my mother and the only thing she had left to her name when she passed. I actually don’t have a photo of the whole trailer outside so I just snagged one off the internet. It was similar to these though . So I took over it and did a remodel on the inside. It was paid for so it was a good spot for us until we were able to rebuild our credit and get us where we needed to be to get into our family’s dream home.

Every day, I would express gratitude for that trailer. Don’t get me wrong, the walls were closing in fast! There were days that I wanted to scream “I really dislike this place!” but it was only because of minor inconveniences that just felt really big during that time. I had to keep a positive attitude. If I didn’t, I assure you I would’ve given up and we could’ve just built on rooms at the trailer. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. I know many that do it. 💙 I just had zero interest in remodeling anymore. I had done it 3 times prior to this. I was ready for a home that was ready to live in. And so was my family.

Shared rooms, no room, constant cleaning, fighting over the bathroom... it was tough... but the closeness that we had in the trailer was exactly what we needed to blend our families together. And we ended up with more than we imagined we would in a dream home.

That 2 years felt more like 3 for us, but I guarantee you had we experienced that without an attitude of gratitude, we’d still be there.

I’ll close this with a quote from Aesop

Gratitude turns what we have into enough.
