Photo taken by Me in our Front Yard, WodongaI wanted to escape to the beach to clear my head and let the unending wash of the waves cleanse my futile soul and refill it with a sense of something bigger but alas time was against me so I've decided to do a totally disjointed Gratitude list. I've read lots of peoples' lists (wish I could link some right now, please forgive me, I'm too tired) and thought they were a cool idea so here's my crack. Today I am grateful for:
- Friends in my life. Old and new, all understanding me and loving me for me.
- Not-so Friends no longer in my life - for helping me to better appreciate what I do have in my real ones. For teaching me life lessons, however painful but necessary for growth.
- My children. My living children for being my daily joy and for Darcy being my strength and forever link to a Heaven I can only dream of.
- My husband. Through thick and thin (thin and not so thin). Best friend, rock, support, laughter, vulnerability, nemesis.
- Mocha coffees at 1am when Cameron won't sleep and my nerves won't rest.
- This silly little blog - my link to some of the most amazing people I have ever not met.
- Needle and thread. Fabric and Yarn. A universal language.
- Charlie and Lola DVDs - my 71 minutes of peace and quiet a day. And for the hours of inspired play they create afterwards.
- Borders Bookstore - for giving Jaynie and I a precious hour and a half of perfect intunement - reading, browsing, hand holding. We are now proud owners of Possum Magic, Koala Lou and there's a Hippo on our Roof Eating Cake.
- Messenger - the connection to a ray of light and a dimple creating smile (Hi Kylie!).
- God for putting me here and now and guiding my futile attempts at navigating the sea of life.
