Today I am grateful for

1. Not waking up to the brassy condemnation of an alarm clock
2. (I know this may be tacky but) I am grateful not to dress like crazy princesses in wild hats.
3. My job
4. The warm reassurance of coffee
5. The warm reassurance of Ruby
6. My daughter’s fearless blog writing
7. Addressing her graduation announcements!
8. The realization of a shared dream
9. Navy Seals

 When you are describing,
A shape, or sound, or tint;
Don’t state the matter plainly,
But put it in a hint;
And learn to look at all things,
With a sort of mental squint.
~Lewis Carroll
