• Dr. James calling Samson "one handsome boy" before giving him his vaccinations. He gave her kisses in return. Guess there were no hard feelings there.
• Riding our bicycles across town to Brett's soccer game. We took a blanket to sit on and were surprised later in the evening when sunburns began to appear.
• Making our garden plants happy as they are beginning to appear by dividing and replanting.
• Finding two small poppy plants in the incredibly sherbet-y colors of salmon and yellow.
• Having a good friend who was also working outside on Saturday afternoon make his garden happy by sharing his plants. He gave us buttercups, sedum and some other things that will be a surprise in a few months! We also inherited a very big cotoneaster bush to hide our gas meter. Thanks Lou!
• Waiting until 8:30 Saturday night to go out and eat sushi when it's half price. That means we got to eat more. . .
• Mowing the grass for the first time this year.
• Sleeping well on Saturday night after working so hard all day.
• A quiet Sunday of napping, creating and baking while God watered all our new gardening ideas.
It was a really complete two days - fully balancing inside and outside; active and resting; physical and mental; giving and taking.
I still feel the peace and joy of it. Think I can hang on to it until next Saturday?
