Things that made me smile this week:
A conversation with friends Monday night
Mark’s declaration that when he is president he will change the flavor of envelope glue.
Two afternoons in my sewing room
Finding some pictures of Timothy on the camera
Mark being home in the evenings because baseball is over.
My presidency: Charlene, Cindy, and Kristy
Being invited in to visit by someone I dropped by to see on a whim.
Texts from women in my church, including, “I found my phone!” “I’m doing well!” “I am happy to help.”
Learning a new skill from a friend
Richard hand-washing the dishes
My beginning violin student who can’t stop smiling when she realizes she is playing a song.
Plenty to read
Halloween bunting
Spending time in Mark’s room, looking at his collections and art
My tried and true recipe of chocolate chip oatmeal cookies
Teaching Mark about atoms and bonding while we mop the kitchen floor together
Mark and Richard’s piano duet
Daniel and Timothy’s good grades on tests this week
Parting with some of the clutter in my closet
Finding a pumpkin I didn’t know was growing in my front flower beds
