Friday Small Things

Juliet's Small Things

Okay, focusing on the small things...

This week, I need this.
Putting aside my dad's heart attack and my sister's car accident, I will focus on this sunny day, 
A rare lunch date with my husband, 
The health of my children, 
The continued improvement of my mother-in-law as she recovers from a stem cell transplant.  

I will celebrate a new idea for a play and a completed revision on a picture book.  
I will look forward to our spring break in Galena, surrounded by friends and family...




Regina's Small Things

Deep breaths, taking one moment at a time
and giving my daughter her first try at driving. Go, Eliza, Go!

  3. Sending you both large hugfuls of love. I admire your strength in dealing with the hurdles you face. Just labeling them as "small things" speaks volumes about your capabilities.

  5. I know it's hard to put the big things aside and appreciate those small enjoyments. So glad you're able to break through and do just that, and may those large, troubling things become even larger victories.
