It's the Simple Things...

Fresh homemade tortillas and Veggie Tales...

(My mom helped this week while I finished my nursing research paper and honored us with her tortillas. Note T Rex is holding a tomato - it's actually one of my pin cushions minus the pins but he likes to pretend it's Bob the Tomato from Veggie Tales.)

Healthy and loving kids...


A kind stranger allowing our child to fly her kite...

(Yes, it's attached to a fish pole - cleaver idea!)

Viruses that do not linger long...


My new diaper drying rack (and knowing the diapers I've been wanting to order are in the mail)...


Beautiful spring days at the Saturday Farmers Market...

(T Rex and Aunt Shell)

Chance encounters with friends downtown...


Knowing my giant nursing research project is near completion...

(no photo - but insert happy, smiling T Rex Mom!)

Yes, it's the simple things that make life wonderful!

What simple things make your life wonderful???

I love how enraptured your family is in Veggie Tales ... and virsuses that do not last long are a true joy.

I've been doing daily walks and finding joy in all the little bits of nature that you can see when you go out walking.

Love the picture of the three of them zoned-in to Veggie Tales!

Glad you are all feeling better- and VERY cool drying rack!

I would love to go to saturday market one of these weeks with our little ones- were there a good amount of vendors?

I love how you can tell everything in photos. I guess I just never have my camera in hand anymore. I really need to capture more moments with pictures.

I can only image how happy you must be getting that paper almost done.

Short virus' make me happy. Smiling kids. Comfortable living. That makes me happy.

I'm giggling seeing how T-Rex Dad is so "into" the show with the kids :) Very cute. That's a cool drying rack for sure. You're so organized.

Congrats on almost finishing the research paper!That has to be a tremendous relief.

Your family looks happy. And there's nothing like a recipe from mom, cooked by mom!

Great list!! My fave picture is of the three of them. You are an inspiration - makes me not as afraid of the changes to come.
