As the years pass, I am coming more and more to understand
that it is the common, everyday blessings of our common everyday lives
for which we should be particularly grateful.
They are the things that fill our lives with comfort and our hearts with gladness --
just the pure air to breathe and the strength to breath it;
just warmth and shelter and home folks; just plain food that gives us strength;
the bright sunshine on a cold day; and a cool breeze when the day is warm.
~ Laura Ingalls Wilder
Love ya lots♥

Laura was one smart girl, just like you Molly. You always take the time to smell the roses, the bunny poop and the dandelions and to give your mom great kisses for no reason at all.

ReplyDeleteMe too Molly...the Vet Tech I have on my blog today was so appreciative of the post per, Kit, Kat and Pup's mom. I told there is so much good that goes unnoticed we need to be sure it shines...I like that quilt in the background

That is lovely
ReplyDeleteThat's so true. I love it when life is generally boring because it means there's no upset, no drama, no worries and we can enjoy the small things (that are really big things) of life.
ReplyDeleteThat Laura is one smart cookie! Pawfect for World's Women's Day!
