Lots of little reasons. Yet no good reasons. Life getting busy. Staying busy.
New Mac that I can't upload pics with or copy too much. Note to self
to do the tutorials.
Since I've last written, the tulip tree has bloomed and then frosted and
fallen, cutting the season shorter than I like. The grass has turned from
brown to green, and our garden has been planted. I watch the birds
from my feeders each morning and smile as they play in the yard in
pairs. The dogwood sprouted buds and petals and is now lush and full.
Grandparents have visited and times have been wonderful. We played
and laughed and shared and loved. Recently, we were so blessed with
a team of medical doctors in the right place at the right time utilizing their
talent and skill in such a way to preserve what is most precious to us. And
what more to be grateful for than this?
The kids are thriving and learning, both in and out of their classroom and
we are focusing on doing just that, - focusing - here more. We have become
softball and tee ball parents and though my backside gets sore, I've found
that sitting on metal bleachers in the sun watching my sweet children is a
wonderful way to spend a spring afternoon.
A week away in the mountains was exactly what we needed (if I knew
how to post pictures, I'd have a weeks supply of amazing views and
plenty of little smiles... give me a minute and I'll get it figured out)
So much has been happening and so much to be thankful for. I'm here
as an April resolution to be here more- to remember how wonderful
this space is and how valid it is in taking note of all that is good in our life.
The first night of our mountain trip, I looked around at this amazing life
we have created, with healthy, thriving children and a loving home... and
like the lyrics of a song I enjoy, the chorus came to me as so appropriate-
"I could not ask for more..."
And that was it- life is too good. So much to be grateful for. I intend to
take note of that more often.
