things that made me smile today...

1.) early morning tea by the window in the living room.
2.) ordering seeds with batman, for the gardens up at a bit of earth.
3.) learning to send text messages.  finally.
(and hearing back from my amazed children).
4.) buying a new shirt for SPRING, at a thrifty 30% off.
you may recall that i'm a reluctant shopper, so this was a fun find.
5.) watching batman play with his new toy, a brand new macBook pro.
this for a man who spends his life
putting other people's needs and wants ahead of his own.
he's been looking like a three year old on christmas morning all afternoon.
(precious).
6.) the SNOW.
and remembering all the gigantic snowmen/dragons/gorillas
 we used to make with my Dad, complete with facial details
created with food coloring, branches and veggies from the fridge.
7.) yummy leftovers for lunch, including cherry pie.
8.) dreaming/scheming/planning...(!!!!)
9.) hanging out by the fire with mr. henry.

and

10.) reading the newest post at our youngest daughter's blog,
crunchy corner and bringing her idea over here to sew and sow life.

SO...what has made you smile today?

  3. Loved smiling at your smiles, Karen - and Gretta's too! My favorite smile of the day was 2 youth group members improvising on guitar & drum at the youth service today when the cd player died - cool! AND, seeing my name in lights on your family & friends list - what fun:-)
