gratitude
some moments that have been delighting my heart lately.
happy armpits
reading beautiful and profoundly deep and touching words on her substack post
crying and talking while making dinner and having the two of them by my side
getting a walk in even today
finally happy with my words
holy cow the clouds
her card. her words. her poem. her heart. her gift.
knowing one person on our flight from Houston and having her sit in her assigned seat right. next. to. me.
stopping at home mid walk
not stepping on the snake
the orchid coming back to life before my very own eyes
downloading just one sd card
when i don’t have to click on the arrow for my tabs
when we’ve been struggling with his feet for so very long (over a year) and have gone to all of the specialists and orthotists and done everything humanly possible. and then one of the most wonderful doctors shares an idea. and texts me while we’re at dinner many hours later with more thoughts. and just 5 days later, it’s like he has new feet. (all praise and glory goes to God)
hearing the water from the farmstand
and the birds chirping
sunlight on my face
God reminding me what a privilege and honor it is to have such a full and meaningful life (when going from event to event)
our generator
new teachers who are so lovely
her own story of sadness and of mixed tapes she cried to
how he now gives Hawaiian shirts as gifts
the exact matching papa one
the shortest drive from the airport
everything somehow fitting in the rental car
the original cube packing: ziploc bags
the hope that these all save while i’m on airplane mode (and they do)
hearing nutcracker music from the parking lot
