No.398: 2020 Gratitude // 20

A new series for 2020: if I record 20 things every week, I’ll have over 1,000 items by December 31.  
That’s a lot to be grateful for.

laughter
that my wildflowers and veggie seedlings survived the handful of frosty nights
that we’ve been able to accomplish so many projects around the house during this lockdown
how white paint makes the fence really pop
new apple trees and blueberry bushes
a really inspiring homily
an exciting new opportunity for M
games of Scrabble Jr.
rainboots lined up all in a row
when I take the time to clean the kitchen top to bottom
a new mama bird checking out the nest
that I was finally able to snag a spot for Walmart Grocery pickup
having a loose curriculum plan for next school year
“Mum! Mum, Mum, Mum! Mum!”
that there are so many interesting books to read (if only I had more time!)
my husband
that Lucy is my little shadow and follows me around the house
new pots for more plants
finding new uses for old things
collapsing into bed after a full day
