This little box represents the best things in my life and I never again have to fear forgetting the love and the light in my life. They are all here, in my Blessing Box, waiting for me to cherish them again and again and again…

Days can get tough in the lives of the girls, so literally I hope they can count their blessings. Sometimes when life will deal them with a tough blow, I hope they open the Blessing Box, just to remind themselves of all the good things they have.
