Love Book.
a grateful heart is a happy heart.
A few years ago I found myself sizing up the needs and wants in my life and found myself falling short on the "I'm glad I have-s". I decided it was time to start keeping a Love Book.
My love book is a list of things I love. I try to write in it everyday and list at least 5 things I love about the day. I was glancing back in it today and decided to post an excerpt here:
June 7, 2009
*I love. All of the tiger lilies and wildflowers that seem to grow randomly all down the sides of the interstate here in South Carolina.
*I love. Gracie's hugs in the morning when she's so happy to see that I'm awake.
*I love. How clean the house was when we left this morning.
*I love. Miriam's sweet little features on her face and her tender self. She seems so vulnerable when she's home and so brave when she's out in public.
*I love. The Fuji Apple Chicken Salad at Panera. It has the perfect blend of favors and crisp apple chips. Yum!
*I love. My life.
Sometimes I write more than five. :)
happy. LIFE.

Davina, thanks for sharing. I think the love book is a great idea. I am starting today to list (at least) 3 things every morning. The book will be a good place for me to reflect and remind myself about these things.... (when life gets a bit hectic and during times of feeling a bit down) I really appreciate you Davina. You are a great mom and a wonderful wife to my son. I love you.
