Fall Gratitudes

1.  Those perfect days where the temperature is just right, the sky is blue, the air is crisp, and it just feels special.

2.  Keeping a close eye on the trees as they do their magic leaf colororama!

3.  The depth of the tree lines change in the Fall — so much more dimensional with all the color.

4.  Walking in crunchy leaves — scuff, scuff, scuff, stomp, stomp, stomp!

5.  Playing in crunchy leaves with kids — even better!

6.  Last year I threw myself down into a whole pile of leaves in front of our house — my daughter was just shaking her head.  Can’t let your age stand in the way of a good time!

7.  Going for a walk and finding a gorgeous leaf on the ground and holding it for the rest of the walk.

8.  Getting out your colored pencils and trying to reproduce that leaf — it makes you appreciate the artistry of nature and also gets you right into the incredible number of colors that can be contained in one leaf.

9.  Being so grateful for the seasons — they seem to be part of the ebb and flow of my life, too.

10.  Thank you, God, Mother Nature, and the Universe, for this amazing life and all it’s wonder!
