Abby hasn't been particularly thrilled about being in her last year of high school, so I was happy to find her in a good mood when I picked her up this afternoon.

It turns out they had a school-wide rally and that the seniors all got crowns (from Burger King) and --if they wanted them-- leis. And if her cheerful demeanor was any indicator of truth, she was happy to receive both. 

Seeing her enjoy herself is a blessing, so I am grateful for those little things that made her smile.
