Things that Make Me Smile...


Spencer who has been feeling wonderfully well since his central line was removed, so well that he consented for this picture with only minimal complaining.....

My sweet little Ellie girl who is one of the few of my kids who consistently and happily still poses for pictures....

Watching Spencer plop down in a sunny spot in the courtyard to play with his remote control helicopter....

Watching my kids run their hearts out at the Hershey's track and field meet this past weekend....


Watching Ellie entertain herself at the track meet by giggling with her cute friends....


Reminiscent of the way Cami did when she was that age, I loved watching my nephew "dig for gold" then promptly put the nugget in his mouth....

Getting visits from my sisters, sister-in-law, and sweet little nephew who was eating a much tastier green treat in these pictures...

A teenage daughter who will still plop down on the couch and snuggle up with her little brother...

and still finds joy in a little romp through the rain...

and last but not least....

the best mother's day card EVER (thought up and created on a humongous tri-fold by my awesome hubby)!

I hope your love language is words of affirmation because you just got a lot! Still praying for Spencer and your family. Hugs!

I need to up my mommy game. All I got from my kids was sugar scrub from Gwynne--that I helped her make during my turn to teach co-op preschool. You must be doing something right, or 101 things right.

What a beautiful post (I love how you can find the beauty in life, even though it is very tough right now), and I love the card you got for Mother's Day!!! So cool.
