Grace In Small Things - Part 1

I came across this project just today and I absolutely love the idea.

"The world we live in is loud and harsh and bright and demanding, and it is easy to slide into a less than thoughtful survival mode in which we do what we have to do to make it through the day with the least amount of strife possible. This robs us of the time and energy to be mindful of ourselves and those we love and to recognize the grace that exists in small things."

Too true.

I think I'll join in the fun. Maybe not every day, perhaps weekly. At any rate, now more than ever we should be pausing to take stock and appreciate the small things that add up to make life...well, life.

So, part 1:

1. A warm, purring kitty curled up at my side.

2. A warm husband curled up at my other side.

3. Chocolate oreo cake. With an oreo on top.

4. Sour cream.

5. Slipping into the comfiest pair of pajamas after a long, hard day.
