Things That Made Me Happy Today
(Another way to say Gratitude):
1. The chenille bedspread. It’s so comforting to snuggle up under it.
2. My Best Bird, the Oriole, flitting in and out of the honeysuckle vines all morning.
3. The holler is filled with the scent of honeysuckle.
4. Reading Bud, Not Buddy with the kid before he headed off to school this morning.
5. Completing the grading for four of my six classes. Only two more to go!
6. Talking on the phone with Sarah this morning.
7. The way the sun dapples the pathway the deer have made in the bosque across the stream.
8. How Ellis hums to himself wherever he is, like his dad.
What brings you joy?
Mockingbird Chronicles 
My joys.
1) Sitting and simply being aware of being.
2) Misting the moss garden and seeing the green deepen.
3) Listening to the Cardinal proclaim his joy at simply being.
4) Sensing your joy as you list your joys.
Keep on keeping on my friend!

I’ve begun painting and drawing circles. Not every day. But often. I think of you. I still have the one you sent me.
