October 15

The kiddos were thrilled when we went outside this morning and they spied a few droplets on rain on the leaves of the tree that grows against the fence.

While it's both sobering and kind of sad to think that they could ever be so excited over something as simple as rain (which, for everyone out of our area, is a testament to how incredibly dry it's been here for the past few years), their shared attitude also reminded me of two truths. One, never, ever, ever forget to feel genuine gratitude and to express it. And two, notice, remember, and cherish the small things that are so easy to ignore.
