Today I'm especially thankful that my son is healthy and happy, and that one of my friend's sons came through surgery successfully and is on his return to health. (Let's just keep sending positive thoughts and prayers her way in the meantime.)
What sweet joy, finding these moments in life.
It's really not that hard to find. I mean, just look at that sweet face! (But try to ignore the underwear on his head. It was a thing.... never mind....)
It's not hard to find sweetness in this face. Nor in this one:
After all, who can resist the sweet warmth of a sunbathing kitty?
On the topic of sweet... sweet foods are rather rarish in our life because I primarily don't have a sweet tooth. But there's just enough treats for everyone else. Except this one was so good that I've been sneaking too many bites out of it. But isn't that the point... take in the sweetness of life? Or in my case, the sweetness of a welcome-to-our-new-house homemade (right out of the package) chocolate fudge cake with butter cream icing.
Sweet dreams!
