Today I'm grateful for music. I'm going to miss my commutes in the morning and evening four days a week. I won't miss the driving part, or the traffic, or having to leave early to get to work on time (and then still arrive late). But I will miss listening to music on my drives.…

Today I'm grateful for time spent with nieces and nephews. Tonight I babysat Cora Mae, my almost three year old niece. We laughed, played, and watched Pooh. My favorite, most precious moments, were spent with her cuddled up next to me as we watched Pooh Bear. I noticed when I said, "Oh no", she said…

Today I'm grateful for overnight visitors in the middle of the week. Sometimes a surprise conversation, heartfelt talk, or just a hug is all it takes for me to know, "It's all going to be okay."

Today I'm grateful for rainbows. My five year old niece used to tell me her favorite color was rainbow. Pretty much the best answer ever given to that basic question. One of my earliest memories is going out into our front driveway in NE Portland and my dad pointing out to me a rainbow.…

No matter how long my day- I can always count on coming home to an eager dog and a unimpressed cat. There is something wonderfully comforting about the predictable. I'm not afraid of what mood I may find these creatures in and I'm not afraid of not knowing how to please them. They just want…

Today I'm feeling grateful for file folders. Manila, various colors, legal size, and regular letter size. I love being able to organize and put a label on something that contains a whole bunch of otherwise loose paper. There's something incredibly satisfying about feeling organized and having everything in it's own place. Sometimes the little things…
