Grateful for so many things today! It’s amazing how many things came together in one day. I started with a Chamber of Commerce breakfast, which was very early on a frosty morning, and I can’t even get into the amazing things I learned and the inspiring conversations I had, there, as it was like a…
The joy of puppies and the excitement of little boys… I’m grateful for the time with Ethan at a friends place with their new puppies. I was picking him up from Amanda’s (see Day 32) after music, and we took a little time to meet their new arrivals… (who are now tinted yellow after a…
Felicity Newton is one of our Create the Life Club members and a most enthusiastic, encouraging one at that! I’m grateful for Felicity as she is always so positive and encouraging, she says that I’m a breath of fresh air, that I’m so inspiring, but I think people see in others what is in themselves.…
