everyday i journal
and in that journal
i also write a quick and dirty
list of what
i have recently
been grateful for.

here’s a snippet:

♥ lilacs
♥ pug snoring on the couch
♥ sunshine
♥ hot showers
♥ no headache
♥ a new polka dot dress
♥ beaches and books and ponytails
♥ running into my brother at the grocery store
♥ the house smelling like lilacs & baby powder
♥ how a friend made me laugh by saying he
hoped baby powder wasn’t made from babies
♥ garden centers
♥ late night conversations with Cam
♥ unexpected sweet text from Em saying she misses me
♥ a good night sleep
♥ hair in a messy bun
♥ bare legs and bare feet and polka dot flip flops
♥ people that tag me when they see polka dot items on sale.
