THE SIMPLE THINGS THAT MAKE ME GO ;)

Good morning!

Today, I am participating with Miz Christina (www.soulaperture.blogspot.com) in her discussion of the simple things in life. Here they are:


* Walking around the neighborhood park and seeing two sisters running with glee to the swings
* Seeing a baby sip from his sippee cup on a hot, summer evening
* The color green
* The smile that emerges on my manicurist's face when I tell her, "Great job!"
* The beauty that emerges onto my camera's LCD screen after I press the button.
* A good cup of hazelnut coffee, especially on a rainy morning
* A delicious chocolate chip cookie or piece of homemade pound cake
* Any Marie Callendar pie
* Mr. A. knocking on my door for an outing; I know that I am in for a treat
* Greeting a church member
* A good bargain
*Hearing my grandmother's excitement that I am at the other end of the phone
* The following couple. They were married recently at the age of 90 plus:

Happy Hump Day!

It's so good to slow down, and take time to realize all the good around us.

I love the picture of the newlyweds. How fantastic that they are still open to love after nearly a century of living.
