The Best Thing I've Heard All Week

     A brilliant friend of mine called her new boyfriend a 'gentleman savage' on Facebook this week, and it struck a chord in me. It...

It's the Little Things: Day 32

  I want to focus on the good things this year.
All the things people get right.
All the times that everything works out just perfectly after we assumed disaster had already struck.
All the times that the right word was spoken at the right moment.
So, let's celebrate those little moments together, shall we?

  • It's celebrating (long distance) with your grandson who is turning 1 today. Where DOES the time go? 
  • It's LEGO Club at work today having the biggest crowd we've ever had, and all the kiddos playing so nicely together, while us mamas talked shop. 
  • It's the start/new beginning of "Thursday Night Games" at our house, since they needed a place to play games once it's become cold and dark early in the evening these past few months. (during the warm months, they enjoy their games outside) 
  • It's coming home after everyone has left TNG (see above) and finding that the teenagers and young adults have left your home neat and tidy. Hallelujah!
  • It's attending the late showing of a movie at someone else's expense... Someone who didn't want his parents attending TNG. LOL! 
  • It's seeing a movie that you didn't have high hopes of enjoying, only to discover it was hilarious and so very enjoyable. (Jumanji)
  • It's having a grown son tell you that you can leave the youngest at home during TNG and he will watch him. "And by watching him, I mean sending him to his room and letting him play on his tablet all evening." Ha ha haaaaaaaa, at least he's honest, right?!

    Oh goodness, I am enjoying this post style so very much! It's taking the focus off of the struggles, the heartache and the frustrations that are part of this life we live, and putting it on the good, the humorous, the blessing, and the dare-I-say-it miraculous. I'm reminded of this verse found in Philippians 4:8, "
    Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things."


What's on YOUR little things list today?
