[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 689123, member: 17461"] Good Morning, Everyone :smile: Pigless, you are a nicer daughter-in-law than I could ever be if I did not enjoy D H mom. She is so funny and smart and has an Italian accent and I just love her. This is so funny. I have never heard the term toadstrangler. I love it! Next time it rains, I am going to incorporate that term into my weather observations. Toadstrangler. Ha! Oh, that's good, pasa. Nephews are so cool. And nieces. They see everything from a different perspective, and like to talk about what they remember. It's fun to see ourselves through their (now adult) eyes. Most of the time. Yum, Tanya. I loved the picture you sent. It's reminding me to see the wonder in everything just as it is. I have been so focused on putting things in order that I have been losing the pleasure of just breathing in. *** We are having a beautiful morning here, too. Braving woodticks and Lord knows what else, I went out to do gardening yesterday. And do you know, I immediately went into this mindset having to do with the ten thousand things that need doing. Instead of remembering to see through my child eyes and relish the wonder of just being out there. I saw the most striking and beloved things yesterday, when I look at it this way. Me and the dog and the cat. We were all out there, together in the sun. And now that I think about it, we had such a nice time. But you know? I wasn't remembering it like that, when I pictured what "needed" to be done, today. Isn't that something. I will try to hold an intention of nurturing and celebrating, today in my gardening. And this will be a beautiful day. And I will still get my work done, but it will matter in a beautifully different way because the meaning I attach to what I do, and with whom, will be different.
