Now, as to what to write about... I don't want to set a standard that will be limiting or unrealistic. That will discourage rather than encourage writing and I need encouragement right now. So my standard? Whatever feels good, for starters. Writing should feel good, at least, for the purpose I have here. So, here's to writing a lot about my feelings, reflections, observations and so forth!
Today's simple joys:
- Giving in to buy bright yellow primroses at Walmart because this was the THIRD time they begged me to take them and I could no longer drown them out with excuses...
- Eating delicious salmon with my family (cooked perfectly with lots of lemon)
- Sitting on the edge of the sandbox watching Hannah play
- Hot sun through cool breezes in February
- Flying down the metal slide with Hannah when she wanted to go "both"
- The way Michael and Hannah giggled together when she happened on something that made him laugh
- Michael's cuddly jamied body sleeping heavily on my chest
- pouring over pictures of delicious foods while studying principles of superfood nutrition
- the brief rainbow that flickered on the wall when I went to put Hannah down for her nap
- funny phrases from my linguistic two-year-old
- A comfortable bed waiting for me when I finish this post....
Goodnight!
