Throughout the week I've felt grateful for:
...New growth.
.
...Weeding around the grapes (in the rain) and blueberries (in the sun) and bringing them to the chickens.
.
...Jeff digging up herbs in our garden to share with a friend.
.
...A visit to the woods to see the trillium.
.
...How good it is for our souls when we get time outside each day.
.
...The smell of homemade french onion soup cooking on the stove. It was a very good batch.
.
...Days with sunshine shining through the windows and lighting up the house. A treat after dark, rainy days.
.
...Waking up to the sweetest e-mail from my sister that kept bringing a smile to my face the rest of the day. Her words really made my heart happy.
.
...Bracken bringing flowers over to me while we were in the garden. A dandelion, two tiny daisies, and some little pink ones I don't know the name of.
.
...Extra cleaning around the house.
.
...Play time with friends.
.
...The two fish in the front pond swimming freely and seeming much happier after Jeff and Bracken cleaned it out a bit.
.
...Finding a cashmere sweater at the thrift store in my favorite color (green) for only $3.27! Right size and right budget too.
.
...Time outside. Fresh mountain air. Hauling loads of firewood. Exercise.
.
...Grandma calling and helping things when we were having a hard morning.
.
...Jeff surprising me and making the chicken soup that I was going to make for lunch one day when I was feeling overwhelmed and stressed (even though he was plenty busy too.)
.
...Laughing while we listened to Car Talk Radio on the drive to town. Those brothers really crack us up.
.
...Another early morning, working by headlamp while Bracken slept. I love having productive time in my day before Bracken even wakes up.
.
...Being outside to witness the gentle breeze covering everything with pink blossoms.
.
...Home time.
