My Gratitude Continues

The week is passing by quickly and my husband and I are looking forward to enjoying time with some friends this weekend.  We have not seen these friends for several years.  They live out of area, but they are always close to our heart..  It will be exciting to see them and catch up on what is happening in our lives.  So, today I am grateful for good friends and all the fun memories with them.  We are hoping to make some more new memories.

The concert with Kevin Bacon last night was good.  There were lots and lots and lots of people in a small outdoor area called the civic center at The Greene.  I guess that was to be expected when a free concert is held and it is a Hollywood actor.  There were other bands performing also.  It was an interesting evening watching people.  Since the area was packed, we managed to squeeze into a small area by a huge flower pot.  A great evening to remember as I got to sit next to beautiful flowers and my husband.

My other grateful thing today is of course flowers.  I write about flowers quite often.  The civic area last evening was adorned with beautiful flowers.  I can not imagine a world without flowers.   The sight and smell of them can make anyone smile.  There is something calming about a flower garden.  It can be good therapy when you need to be uplifted.  I love flowers and I am very grateful for their beauty.  I think  I'll pick up a boutique for the table today.

My last gratitude thought today is for my son.  I don't speak of him often.  He likes his privacy and wishes to stay out of my blog.  He is however a gift of love.  I found out that I was pregnant with him on Valentines Day many years ago.  That was a great day.  So today I wish to tell him that I am proud that he is my son, and I am lucky that he shares my love of baseball and peanut butter.  I love you my son !!

Thinking about peanut butter is making me hungry.  I think it is time for lunch.  Thank you God for peanut butter and honey. 

Life is beautiful when you think about the simple things in life that make you happy!!
