Today is all about the small things.
The little moments have really been on my mind lately...
and I am clinging to them.
I am being reminded.
Trying very hard to appreciate them,
not to overlook them or pass them off.
Today -
a warm cup of coffee
the smell of rain
my almost 2 year old's pure joy & zeal over his bath
a friend's cheery voice
playing princess checkers with my beautiful daughter
and the day's not over just yet. :)
In honor of the "small" - I painted small.
Just almost 2" by 4". A wee little thing. It is actually a wooden domino from an old set I had for my classroom. I think I might stick a magnet on the back & add it to my fridge for spring's arrival.
I hope the little things in your life are bringing you many blessings.
XO,
Jen
Jen...I am right there with you! As I get older, I certainly am aware and ever so grateful for the small things in life...that are really big huge at the end of the day...snuggles with Tara, a hug from Tim...movie night, rain, art, and the connections we make on our blog...fill my heart.
ReplyDeleteOh Yeah...have yet to find a great white pen!
We are in the same mindset--first, Christy's new class and now our latest posts--I just blogged about one of my simple pleasures! I love the simple pleasures in life! :)
ReplyDeleteI encountered your blog through Diane's (My Art Journal) blog. I amazed by this short entry. From a far and without reading your description, the piece of domino looks huge.
ReplyDeleteDesigning little things entails a lot of patience and I think you have more than that.
Thank you for sharing your work and I am now following your wonderful blog. Hope we could make a connection too. I would look forward for more posts. ;-)
