Smiling...

Things that have made me smile recently in a way that I haven't for a while...
- Chilly Fall weather and beautifully colored leaves on the trees.
- Cozy sweatpants given to me by a good friend.
- A fantastic afternoon spent at the cutest little pumpkin patch around.
- Seeing Brandi Carlile live in concert with 2 women who are so dear to my heart.
- Witnessing the miracles of adoption multiple times in the last couple of months.
- News of my brother getting engaged...adding a sister-in-law and nephew to my family
- Finding several blogs that inspire me weekly.
- The picture below of my amazing mother and I.
