Just a few things that I am so thankful for this Friday. As Spring approaches, it seems to be easier to find things. Find myself smiling more and more as the weather warms.

My sparkles are back! The river sparkles like this when the light is
just right in the afternoon. Sometimes it even reflects on the dining room wall. |

My reading nook on the screened porch is finally warm enough to enjoy again,
and enjoying it I am! |
We have gone for several family walks this week. The girls are actually old enough and strong enough to walk a longer distance with us at a nice pace so it actually feels like exercise. We played at the park for about an hour this afternoon and Zion was so excited to be able to do so many more things than he could in the fall. Hubby and I discussed last night whether it is better to watch the news daily and everything that is happening (what I tend to do) and get kind of stressed out and fearful, or to live in a bubble and not know or think about all the crazy stuff going on. I think I need to be informed, but at the park this afternoon, decided that it is definitely essential to my sanity to completely enjoy the moments of beauty even if surrounded by ugly, nasty and crazy.
