How can I raise the level of gratitude in my life? Let me count the ways.

Our little Stella started school this fall. It has been life changing. I cannot believe how much she’s learned in just one short month. And, most important, how much she loves it. She picks out her little outfits each morning, requests different types of braids most days, and then off she goes. When she gets home, she is so eager to do her homework that we work on it right away. We’ve set up a chalkboard in the living room so she can pretend she is the teacher. She has an entire class of well-behaved stuffed animals and dolls.
I wouldn’t say I cry easily. Sure, I cry at movies and I cry sometimes when I read the news. And I can cry when I feel inexplicable happiness. (I love it when THAT happens.) Or sadness. But often, when others around me are crying, I’m dry-eyed. Maybe going public will help diminish the one trigger that turns me into a complete, blubbering cry-baby—embarrassingly so. In fact, I usually show up for my “cry” in a big, floppy hat wearing sunglasses.
Thank you for reminding me how great it is to vote.In all the years since I have been old enough to vote,I have missed one election–I had the flu & couldn’t go to vote. I, too, feel that it is such a privilege to vote. I wouldn’t miss it for the world!
In keeping with my comment under the first photo, I would add that all of us need to vote because it is a right that imprisonment and even death has happened in the effort to have equal civil rights! When we don’t vote, we let other agendas prevail and we only have ourselves to thank when we don’t like the way things go.
Amen, sister!
Wow, MaryJane, that was an amazing post. Bravo.
So precious!
Oh, what lucky kitty’s they are and so beautiful, they look quite happy.

Awww, I’ll never understand how anyone with a heart beating within their chest could do such a cruel thing. Sooo glad that the girls got to the kittens before anyone else. Happy ending … and a new beginning for the cats! Yay! <3
