Remember me saying that I love to watch folks meet their new baby birds from me for the first time? Here is a photo of my friend Eve and her hubby meeting their baby painted conure (which they named "Mira", short for "Miracle") in 2005.
Mira wasn't shy at all about giving them kisses straight away.
Today I am grateful that I got my digital camera when I did several years ago. It's just an amateur snap shot sort of camera, but if I didn't have it, then this blog would be very dull without the pictures I've taken the past few years.
This afternoon I received a surprise package in the mail...
it was full of beautifully wrapped little presents to me. It was so much fun to look at all those pretty gifts and then tear into the paper and see the surprise inside. It was full of colorful socks, yummy foods, and things that just made my heart warm. I thank Nettie for surprising me with this fun blessing today. I could feel the love come out of each gift as I unwrapped it.
There are many unfinished projects and needs and deadlines looming over me these days and I am behind on pretty much everything in my life. It is good for me to remember the good things of the day, else I fall into a pit of despair. Gratitude to God for all things is like a life-buoy when I feel I am sinking.
Thank you God for the nice gifts from my sister.
Thank you for all the good things of today.
