It's the Little Things That Make the World Go Round

Lately I've been thinking about all of the little things that add color to your day, strengthen bonds, bring a smile to your lips and elicit that warm fuzzy feeling of being loved...

The little things....like how Mom stays at the security gate at the airport and waves until you are completely out of site. She stays there, waving and blowing kisses until she possibly cannot see you anymore...I can't stop smiling after this and stay this way until the plane pushes back...

When you fly back home and have been dreaming of seeing your husband and dog....then get off the plane to find your husband standing there with stargazer lillies.....or coming home from work after being sick all day and he's there to greet you with a big mug with steaming hot chocolate, frothy whipped cream and fat marshmallows...

The hugs, notes and little nudges from loved ones checking in, just to let you know you are on their mind and in their heart...

The little things that help us feel connected paint streaks of color throughout our days...
