{Gratitude Lately}

Lately, I've been thankful for


Friends who share
and delicious Manhattans


Music and memories
 of my youth


This sweet girl,
 who reminds me
 to stop and smell the snow


Adventures in distant countries
and the joy of memories


Winter sunsets 
through the trees

Saturday nights
and shared snacks


Friday nights
and a new bottle of wine


Creative neighbors
and the joy they share


Valentine's Day 
with my best friend

 Snail mail 
and cute 2-year-olds


Open windows in February


Creative community art

Grilling in February
 in Nebraska


Beautiful commutes
that make early mornings 
worthwhile


and the first sign of spring.

Happy Sunday, friends!
What are you grateful for this week?

  2. You do have a lot to be thankful for, and this is a great reminder to grateful for both the large and the small things that life has to offer!

  3. That's more than 25%! And I'm convinced that you shop for wine based on the prettiness of the label. ;)

    1. Ha! I do, Janet! However, I recently bought wine in a box and it's good, but lacks the pretty label. :(

  4. Open windows in February, sunsets through the trees and best friends to spend Valentine's Day with for sure!

    1. Bellezza, now we'll have to start closing the windows as the pollen is beginning to bother my poor husband. Spring in Nebraska is not his favorite season.

  5. Such a lovely post and so much to be grateful for! We are starting to bloom here and I can't believe it's already time for spring--I don't think we had a single freeze this year. Can't wait for more blossoms. :)

    1. Aw, thanks Trish. I enjoy putting these posts together as both a reminder of all that I'm grateful for and as a place to share my Instagram pix. Wow! No hard freeze, ice or snow for you guys this winter?? I guess I didn't realize that. Hate to think what that might mean for your summer...
