732. The power of Excel, and thankful to an amazing, knowledgeable, personable, wonderful instructor at my training today.
733. Getting to read my Runner's magazine for a few minutes at lunch today, my birthday issue:)
734. Picking Emmy up at school today and seeing all the high school girls who help care for her there so excited to see her after they returned from a field trip. Gives me flashbacks of Lily when she was at COOP. The gamut of relationships our young children build is incredible to me. It is a gift to see these bonds unfold throughout the year.
735. Seeing Andy amidst a sea of his students as they exited the bus from their field trip, and knowing what a difference he's made with his students and for many others for their book drive/community service event today. The power of positive change overshadowed any difficulty we had last night and that lingered this morning.
736. Aunt Mindy, Uncle Donny, and Harlee having Lily bonding time today for her early release day.
737. Watching and helping Lily learn how to roller skate.
738. Investing the time tonight to get organized so I won't feel so cluttered and chaotic in my brain tomorrow (at least, that is my hope!).
739. A clean kitchen counter. Let me repeat that (because it won't last long): a clean kitchen counter.
739. Andy at his mom's for the night
740. So grateful that I went with my gut and watched the movie that called to me tonight on Netflix called Entre Nos. This unsuspecting film gave me appreciation for so much tonight: literacy (and makes me want to go back to volunteering my time with Literacy Volunteers ); a bed to sleep on; walls, curtains, and a roof overhead; knowing where my next meal will come from; safe, stable, employment in a clean environment; my husband and children and their huge capacity for love of me and so many others; a woman's strength; a woman's compassion.
