Smiles

Given all the stuff going on in our world (and when isn't there stuff happening?!), I have begun to appreciate what makes me stop and smile...here's my list:

• my daughter asks me how big butterfly poop is.
• God answers prayer by healing and encouraging my mother-in-law.
• my pup's entire back-end wiggles to greet me at the door when I come home.
• eating the Bread of Life with the world this weekend.
• my husband does the dishes without asking him to.
• purple-red-pink sunrises on cool autumn mornings.
• meaningful, passionate worship with my faith family.
• smell of bread baking.
• color of cheerful yellow mums in front of people's houses.

What makes you smile, in spite of your difficulties?
