I took a few minutes today and thought about all the silver linings I have experienced the past week or two and I thought maybe I would share a few.....
*Jas made it home safely after a four day work trip to Santa Rosa, CA*I saw my friend's beautiful new baby...absolutely perfect*I enjoyed a 45 minute phone conversation with my sister; I loved and needed every minute of it*I overheard my three year old describing ice cream to her little brother, as if he had never had it*watching my 20 month old scream with delight as he ran through the sprinklers...the neighbors enjoyed it as well*a great walk with a good friend and her little girl*waking up to the sound of my husband doing the dishes*a Mr. Pib soft drink*A wonderful talk on gratitude by Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin and realizing that God DOES speak to us today*singing songs with my two beautiful children; their favorite is the Hokey Pokey...they love to "put their whole bodies in and shake them all about"*seeing friends deal with adversity and come out shining*and something that will always put a smile on my face or a silver lining in my darkest clouds is to hear my children tell me they love me*
