-Our bed being underneath the window, so when I wake up in the middle of the night, on the clear nights, I can see the most incredible sky full of twinkling stars.

-Our truck up and running again! Really really thankful for that! (And the help from our neighbor for making that happen.)

-Some rainy days that watered the garden. Making the roots so happy and giving us a break from watering.

-Watching Bracken enjoy butternut squash for the first time. He loved it. It’s so fun to watch his facial expressions whenever he tries a new food.

-Enjoying one of my new favorite words- Empowered. Whenever I start feeling discouraged, sorry for myself or start falling into being a “victim”, I quickly ask myself  ‘How can I be empowered in this situation?’ It’s amazing how it inspires me to take action and turns things around!

-Bracken turning 9 months old on Thursday. My sister, Samantha, made the point that he’s now been in the world as long as he was in my belly.

-Trusting that things would work out when we were feeling stressed about money due to unexpected truck costs. It always does.

-Trades that bless us with good food. It makes us feel rich! We’ve learned that you can feel mighty rich without having much “money.”

-Having the courage to let things go when they no longer serve us, even when change is hard.

-Being inside on a cozy, rainy day today. With sleeping Bracken in one arm. A napping husband. A chicken in the crockpot. A quiet house. I love Sundays.
