Hello Monday... Hello Gratitude...I have come to truly look forward to these Monday posts.Waking up Monday with a long list of to do's...it is so easy for me to lose sight of all of the good in my life...and start to worry more about what needs to be done...
Jean, in her post on Dross into Gold today...so poignantly reminded me for the need to make room for more joy.My Monday posts have become a weekly scrap book for me...Putting my own focus on all that there is to be grateful for and remembering life's joy.
This week I am most grateful that our trip to the emergency room for Hunter's knee...(he had a bad encounter with a big wave while at Salt Creek Beach)was met with such a knowledgeable and kind staff...
I am so very grateful we have good insurance and access to Hoag Hospital, in Newport Beach...it has a brand new emergency room...with the healing powers that beauty and aesthetics can add.Good insurance for our family...something I have just taken for granted...was definitely on the top of my list this week...as we have just gotten the referral for Hunter's MRI for tomorrow.
Hello Monday...and hello to being grateful for what have becomeour weekly Monday family dinners...that include not only our children...but their respective boyfriend and girlfriends as well.My heart is always grateful for family time spent over a good meal.
I am also grateful that Jeff and Ellis enjoy cooking.Ellis made these summertime delights that I was so excited to see first at Five Vines, in San Juan Capistrano.
