distracted by sparkly things since 1969

*8Things: Small Gratitudes

*8Things icon

When the sun comes out and the college kids congregate in the public squares, my heart gets grateful. Little things become more easily seen and treasured. It must be all that light glimmering off the daffodils.

*8Things: Small Gratitudes

1. Morning cuddles with Cate.
2. Samson’s pitter pat toes when hears the word “walk.”
2. Sunlight at 8pm.
3. Being car-free.
4. Swiming solo. 
5. A room of my own.
6. Cola on ice.
7. Sundays to ourselves.
8. The sound of the elevator at the end of the day.
