29-Day Giving Challenge

Last night the temperature was a balmy 12 degrees here in Maine. I was doing chores, and my son asked me to go outside with him onto our deck.... I really didn't want to, and kept putting him off. He pleaded, I relented, and my other two kids joined us out on the deck. My son had brought out his ipod/speaker and started the dance music.

The sky were clear, the stars were brilliant, the music was rockin! As I write this I realize what a fabulous gift he gave to me... but the gift I gave to my children was me, all of me, in the present, just loving them.

Oh how sweet!  It's the simple things in life....

(And thank you for helping me appreciate the warmer life here in New York - where it's a balmy 25!)
