1. Water parks.
2. Husbands who bring home a burger and fries at the exact moment you’re thinking, “I could really go for a burger and fries.”
3. The ice-cream-and-baby-kicks combination.
4. When all you need is love, and you get it.
5. Finding the light again.
I sincerely hope so, and that it's exciting in a good way.
The weekend was not good, and this list was harder to make than the last two when I started it a couple of days ago. But here’s where it ended up.
Today was better.
Waging a battle against embitterment and taking part in Grace in Small Things.
I’m a bit stuck for words right now for some reason. Too much thinking in my head and not enough thinking with my fingers.
In the absence of being able to give you big thoughts, I will give you small ones. Things I appreciate when I take time to notice them. Last week’s reflections were helpful.
What have you noticed lately?
Waging a battle against embitterment and taking part in Grace in Small Things.
We’re “home” for a few days, visiting family and friends (and attempting to help my parents clean out their basement). This is the first time I’ve been back since we moved and the perspective it provides is interesting, and useful.
I’m not having a lot of success with my gratitude journal, so instead am going to join Schmutzie for Grace in Small Things.
1. Green. Green trees, green grass. Green is in the air and green is life.
2. Afternoon naps.
3. Food, forgotten and remembered.
4. The voices of generations.
5. Finding the piece of yourself you can only see in the eyes of friends who know you well.
