Whole wheat toast and perfectly plump blueberries.
“Where is Thumbkin, where is Thumbkin? Here I am!”
Markers and stickers and practicing K*A*T*I*E.
Dancing and twirling to Natalie Merchant.
Blocks.
More blocks.
Golden roast chicken with rosemary, thyme, and garlic.
Welcome home squeals and hugs.
Bliss.
Each and every day, I strive to appreciate the wonder, beauty, and whimsy in the small moments, the moments that, when strung together, form a lifetime. 
Simply lovely.
Thank you!
I have a feeling your days are similar.
Sounds like a beautiful day to me. Ahh…Natalie Merchant…makes me want to bring out that CD now:) Looking forward to our play date!
We're looking forward to seeing you too!
Katie has been talking about it non-stop.
I have danced and swirled to Natalie Merchant many, many times. Love it!
Such happy memories.
Sounds licely. Which Natalie Merchant song? I am picturing "these are days".
You are exactly right!
I love Natalie Merchant…she is so soothing.
That was suppose to say *lovely*. Sounds like a lovely day.
Love this! We spent most of our afternoon making “fairy houses” in our backyard. My sister called during that and asked what we were doing I actually told her, as opposed to the standard “nothing” that I usually give. Really want to stop doing that!
I love that you reframed it.
You were doing something so important…expanding imaginations!
So lovely!
This? Sounds like a perfect day. Lovely…or have we found a new word for that?
Your life is beautiful.
That is all.
Thank you.
The beauty is in the seeing it.
I know it's early but that chicKen sounds Devine as does your whole day
You're good!
The chicken was heavenly.
The whole house smelled amazing.
*sigh*
Lovely and perfect.
I think that mine will involve drum practice and yowling cats.
Oh how I love this! You could easily be describing a day @ my house! It is bliss.
Thank you, Elizabeth.
I hope to never forget the beauty in the simplicity of our days.
Such happiness.
Love this! Have a great day!
Thank you! I hope that your day was lovely.
There is nothing better.
Truly, nothing.
Simple. And beautiful. Bliss really is redefined with parenthood, isn't it?
I could have never imagined the joy it would bring me.
Absolute bliss.
Very sweet. Of course, I'd trip while twirling!
I did the dancing and left the twirling to the nimble three year old.
It would have gotten ugly if I had twirled!
Please say I can come play there, pretty please!
Its always a sweet moment when I hear Natalie's voice coming over the speakers.
You have no idea how much I would love for you to come for a play date.
Simplest things brings the biggest smiles . Thanks for reminding me of that my friend.
Truly, it isn't the big stuff that fills them with joy.
It's feeling loved and important.
Those smiles are the best reward, aren't they?
I walked down the aisle to get married to Natalie Merchant.
Happy sighs.
Happy sighs, indeed.
That sounds so wonderful. I need a day off to do similar with the grandson.
Yes, you absolutely do!
The best days are the simple ones <3
Exactly.
Sounds like a wonderful life. Simple but full of love.
So full, Tim.
Full to overflowing.
Thank you…
Wake up calls at 5am.
"Mom, is it morning yet?" No. Oh, no.
Crabby are we, the tired three.
Geography and pot roast, spelling bee over dinner.
A cuddle on the couch. Wrestling boys on the floor.
The day over, flushed cheeks, tousled heads tucked into their nest.
I breathe in the soft spots on the back of their neck.
And it is good.
Thank you for getting me to think about what is GOOD in this tired, tired day.
Oh, Adelle…thank you for this.
I love seeing a glimpse into the lives of others…the moments that make us a family.
So lovely.
I LOVED yours – I would love to see this from you every week! Have you considered a link up? such a great prompt – and it requires us to see the GOOD!

Perfection.

I need my life to start being that beautiful again. I think it will…one day soon!
