It's the Little Things

Grandson William likes to walk in the meadow and collect caterpillars. (Oooooh, yes, I see them, Will....that's close enough!) Walking through grasses taller than he is, he can spot those little stripey critters and delights in how amazing they are. I need to remember that. Not about the caterpillars, especially, but about watching for the little things that delight me.

I spent most of my summer exploring very cool places and visiting with some of my very favorite people (love you guys!), but here at home I am also close to those that I love, and there's still wonderment to be found, even without travelling. This little blogspot of mine is the place where I have recorded some of the highlights of the season, but I need to remember that it is also the place to record everyday highlights.

Life can be awesome no matter where I am. I just need to remember to look around and pay attention. When was the last time I explored a meadow with little ones?

Okay, I'm in. It's time to get moving, and enjoy the little things again.
