An outsider's perspective

The kids and I were going grocery shopping. I had Anya in one arm and was trying to get Ryan unbuckled and out of the car. A lady was unloading her groceries in her car and stopped to watch Ryan and Anya for just a moment. She looked at me and said, "You are very lucky to have two beautiful children. " I smiled and politely thanked her. She said, "You may not always feel lucky but you are."
This quick comment from a complete stranger made me really think. I have my days where Ryan and Anya completely ovewhelm me but I am truly lucky.
