simply celebrational





















It's the little things worth celebrating...

dragonflies in the garden...

a garden swing resting in the shade...
laughter from kids playing in the water...

Beautiful written words like your post.

The day lilies that are blooming.

The two little boys who fish behind my house.

LOTS of things. ((hugs))

(oh, and waking up!) :)

Great idea for a blog!!

- the crack of the bat at a baseball game (especially when it is my son up to bat!)

- the smell of a cup of coffee

- a genuine smile that crosses my teen's face - instead of the typical smirk with an eyeroll

Your posts and blog and you.
Friends who leave food for when you arrive home from overseas.
Friends popping in on their way home to the bush.

Rain rain rain means water in the dams. Praise God.

My day.......

The sweet smile of Mom and Dad and another day that I am able to share with them..

My sweet hummingbirds sipping at the nectar outside my kitchen window...

The smell of the coffee brewing while my sweet DH ready's for work.

Seeds sprouting leaves and flowers begining to bloom...
