Happy May! What are you grateful for today?
Lately I’ve been grateful . . .
. . . for brides in white dresses.
For $6 trifle bowls, and lemon custard.
For this “Fuzzy Thing” who makes life more fun.
For sweet cuddles with this babe while her parents eat dinner.
For the way he talks to her.
And for mixers from 1957, and the repairmen who know how to fix them.
Lately I’ve been grateful for…
Christmas gifts that make me feel loved and known.
Craft beverages and tomato soup.
Whirlwind big city adventures.
Delicious brunches with my favorite man.
Velveteen dresses.
My favorite tiny cookie cutters.
For time to paint, and fuzzy little muses.
And for beautiful snowy days in Georgia.
Lately I’ve been grateful . . .
. . for small hands holding old cameras.
And for the old-fashioned fun of waiting for “instant” film to develop.
For $6 goodwill dresses, and a sewing machine to re-fashion them.
For new backsplashes.
And for hot summer hikes.
Lately I’ve been grateful for birthday girls.
And for pink birthday cupcakes with sprinkles.
For family photos.
And plaid shirts.
And I’ve been grateful for the Dad of this crew & his trademark mustache. He makes Father’s Day worth celebrating.
To have these adorable party animals as parents (and friends!).
For the magic of an Amazon cardboard box, and this fluffy cat who reminds me to slow down and enjoy the little things like whisker kisses.
For kayak trips and fun times with my husband’s awesome co-workers.
And for 5ks and upcoming adventures!
Happy Friday, everyone! Do you have any adventures on the horizon? What are you looking forward to most over the next few months?
