- watching independent projects develop according to interests and talents

- a school library

- hugs - great big ones!!

- developing rapport with students

- a well stocked pharmacy (I know I do take it for granted.)

- a great big spaghetti squash from our garden, baked and served with butter and Parmesan cheese



- eating supper together

- having the garden all put away for winter

- hearing my sister's voice

  1. Yes, that soft pillow is such a welcome invitation at the end of the day, and even this morning. I'm heading for a nap while Samuel naps; I'm way too tired to be up for the day.
