…Bright yellow sunflowers covered in bees.

.

…Being reminded to enjoy the abundant sunshine before the season shifts.

.

…Looking over my shoulder at the kitchen sink and seeing Jeff and Bracken dancing together.

.

…Bracken being so helpful in getting the chickens back in their yard after we came outside to find them all over our garden.

.

…Deciding not to leave for a day away and instead staying home and digging in to all the work I needed to get done, then having a really productive time and feeling really good about it.

.

…Pulling up some plants in the garden that were no longer producing and slowly starting our garden clean up for the season.

.

…For every decision- no matter how small- that just feels right. 

.

…Garden abundance and some trades at farmer’s market saving us money on food. 

.

…Holding a sleeping Bracken in my arms.

.

…Getting some computer work done during Bracken’s nap so I could spend time with him and be more present when he woke up.

.

…My mom making me laugh so hard on the phone. Humor is one of her gifts and I always need it.

.

…Each time Honey laid an egg and Bracken had the delight of finding it.

.

…A little sunshine poking through on a cloudy day. Enough for us to go outside and bask in it before it disappeared again.

.

…Calling and singing Happy Birthday to our friend on the phone.

.

…How our meals were transformed every time we added some homemade pesto on top.

.

…A sweet message from my sister that filled my heart up and meant so much to me. (And having her and her husband back in the United States again after a wonderful, tropical honeymoon.)
.
…Our friends bringing us a 25 pound watermelon they grew themselves.
