Since I wrote the blog the other day, I have been very aware of what makes me smile so I thought I would add a few:
Blueberries
Raspberry canes in the winter...every field I see, I smile
Sun...just its presence makes me feel happy
Rain...in the NW this is a good thing that I still smile
Mount Baker
My Husband...after 35+ years, I still get excited when he comes home from work or I see him during the day
My daughters' voices when they call me
Betsy's ring tone...okay it is Mazie yelling, "Hi Nana. Hi Ampa. I wuv you. Bye" But right before she speaks, Betsy says, "Go" I love it. I always let it go through the entire "ring" before I answer - no matter WHERE I am.
Talking to my grandchildren on the phone and watching their serious portrayal of Mary and Joseph...
Skype
Talking to my sister with Skype and checking her kitchen counter each time...
Meeting with God in the early morning
My alarm...especially when there is a song that reverberates in my soul and carries me through the day
Friends...new and old
A clean house...especially if it is arranged differently.
Surprises...of any kind
Chats with friends
hugs
But last night we had our monthly refuge service (our communion service for our church) and what I saw there, made me smile through tears. Men kneeling at the cross, humbled and seeking Him and His presence, taking communion.
