Hello Monday ... Hello Gratitude

 I do a 

Gratitude List

everyday.

I have been doing for longer than I can even remmber.

Today I thought I'd add 

some of my favorite pictures

that fill my heart with

Summer Gratitude.

For me writing

Gratitude Lists

has been life changing

in that I notice when things are good.

Even on hard days

there are always reasons  to be 

Grateful. 

I believe we get more of 

what we think of most.

I also believe it doesn't matter what we have

as much as It matters

how we truly appreciate what we have.

Comparison will always be the thief  of joy.

I am at an age

where I can

feel the sacred in the ordinary.

Small moments

are my big moments.

That a regular Tuesday

can be as memorable and meaningful.

That time together

 can be

 the greatest of riches.

That it is such

 a gift to be able 

to watch our children grow

no matter their  age.

That sometimes

 the summer light

can stop me

in my tracks 

with 

it's beauty.

I believe

 the amount of beauty 

you find in your life

has a lot to do with

how much you seek it out

and

create it.

I believe a lot of life is about

consistently showing up

and 

noticing all the 

Glimmers in Your Life.

Here are a few more of mine.

This here is one of my favorite views this summer.

While I was washing the dishes in the kitchen

this sweet girl

out. in our backyard

completely immersed in her 

watercolor painting.

A simple

sacred moment

to me.

As always my friends

I wish you love and joy

as you style your life
