So very much to be grateful for this week. The basket is filled to overflowing and I can't even remember it all.
21 ~ the impossible blues of the Pacific...
22 ~ macadamia nuts growing on trees and eaten fresh from the shell...
23 ~ coffee... small red balls holding fresh green beans...
24 ~ an absolutely, incredibly, fabulously, ridiculously delicious frozen coffee drink made with Hawaiian coffee...
25 ~ Moloka'i lawnmowers...
26 ~ the airplane door latch breaking on takeoff, not while we were in the air...
27 ~ my reunion with an old family friend who I hadn’t seen for 25 years
28 ~ brave first-time windsurfers...
29 ~ just enough time to squeeze in 30 one-on-one minutes with The Princess at her destination of choice - The Waikiki Aquarium...
30 ~ our decision to go to the Honolulu airport three hours early... a blessing thanks to incomprehensible traffic and losing our way, as well as in-airport delays
31 ~ soft socks in the airport that double for sandals left on a beach far away
32 ~ a forgiving husband who doesn't complain when my foolish oversight makes us miss our connection
33 ~ warmth in a Denver airport in December, despite being dressed for Hawaii
34 ~ a joyful Christmas song, sung by the four year old at the top of his lungs, all the way through the Houston airport
35 ~ food just in time to keep me from getting weepy
36 ~ a toasty cup of coffee when I have only had a few hours of sleep on the airplane
37 ~ overjoyed dog jumping and barking his love on our return
38 ~ friends who take care of our farm while we are gone
39 ~ a sparkling clean hearth, and a kind chimney sweep
40 ~ the first roaring fire of the season, warming my fireplace, and my heart
Wonderful! I love the pictures of Farmer Boy. It's a joy to see that little boy become a young man!
