Thankful for the little things

A strange picture on a blog, I agree! Especially on my blog since anyone that knows me knows that I really don't enjoy cooking or baking very much although I do love my new, renovated Kitchen.

But as we continue to adjust to life without Debbie and walk this journey of grief with Garth, we are more aware of the little things that we can do together that we would otherwise take for granted. Those things that he would give anything to do just one more time:

.....like reaching across the car while driving together and just touching

..... or walking into a store holding hands

.....calling from work just to say hello

.....telling a story of what someone said

.....watching our grandsons together and smiling at them

.....going out for dinner just because

.....walking into HomeSense and finding the perfect Spice Rack for our kitchen(Dave insisted we needed one since trying to find the right bottles while cooking was frustrating)

So today I am thankful for the little things we can do together on ordinary days....even for the new spice rack sitting on my kitchen counter.
