smiles that formed across my son's face

the sun shining on my son's face

my friend in her downtown home interiors boutique

two episodes of leave it to beaver

two little old ladies tending to a community garden

the bluest sky

piles of neglected laundry

sweet text messages from my thoughtful friend, ese

her phone number as it lit up my phone when she called

a film based on true events

isaac's toys strewn about the house

a notebook/journal filled with the most inspirational quotes

a blurry glimpse of my husband's face as he kissed me and isaac goodbye before work

a stack of bills waiting for my attention

dark circles under my eyes

a nine-foot-tall rabbit in a business suit {just kidding!... just wanted to make sure you're paying attention}

a virtually blind man making his way around town

dust collecting on my furniture

a cardinal in a tree

lots of thoughtful comments from my picture inspiration friends

coffee with cream and sugar in my favorite mug {briefly, before being consumed}

the words "i came that they may have life and have it abundantly." {john 10:10}

the way my son looks in and orange and white striped hat

a reminder to create

a cute line of greeting cards called kate and birdie

precious tears in the corner of my son's eyes

an e-mail from my friend, heather, with a list of days she has free for my birthday dinner... yay!

trees that are already beginning to change to colors of autumn

a soft, flickering glow of the setting sun through trees into my living room window
