The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

October 26, 2015

{currently} 20 Things I Love: A Gratitude Journal vol.5

timing dinner perfectly with Mark’s arrival from work
unexpected surprises in the mail
when inspiration hits
full on belly laughs
a mini Milky Way (or four)
writing daily in my commonplace book
chilly soccer games
zipping a skirt I didn’t think would fit
giving up some control
a trunk full of donations
stepping outside of my comfort zone, even when it’s scary
chess games at the table
33 Days to Morning Glory (I’m on Day 8!)
a basket piled high with clean, folded laundry
matching coffee mugs, a frivolous but special memento from our date
open-mouthed, slobbery kisses from TJ
Sharpies in all different colors
when Mark cleans the kitchen for me
my health
the opportunity to try again and again and again
