My Favorite Things . . .

 

Sharing today a few things that I really love to do, eat, experience, enjoy  . . .  maybe you will enjoy them too.


 
Me pushing my sister around in my
doll carriage, circa 1961


She's not a thing, but she is my favorite person on the whole earth.  My sister Cindy. She, who stops by just to clip my cat's claws. Who is ready to drop whatever and come running the minute you need her. She with the twinkling eyes and beautiful smile and warm, warm heart.  She, who I can tell all my secrets to and know she will never judge me. She, who I know will always give me the best advice possible. She, who means the world to me, and not just because of the things she does for me and for others, but because of the good person that she is. I love her. She may not be able to walk on water, but she is the most "Christ-like" person I know.


 

Books.  They have always been my friends.  So grateful for a father who taught me how to love reading.





These two who never fail to bring a smile to my face and heart.  Love them both so much.
