Today I am grateful for

 1.      Yesterday’s Friday tennis!
 2.      Taking the time to really stretch before
 3.      Taking the time to eat breakfast before, not just grab a mango and hope for the best
 4.      Finding what seems like new furniture under mounds of clothes finally reunited with hangers
 5.      (no wire hangers!)
 6.      An afternoon nap—yes!
 7.      This picture of sharing and contentment 
 8.      blooming irises
 9.      learning to distinguish a dove’s call from an owl’s

Perspective can always adopt gratitude ~and gratitude always parents joy.  Ann Voskamp
