5 Good Things

[windinthemaples]

When you see this, take a minute and share five good things of your day with the world, uncut.

1. I got to spend the morning chatting with my housekeeper. He's like family and it is nice to have someone in the house visiting. :)

2. Graeme's sudden need for a nap saved us from being outside during the sudden summer thunderstorm that blew in and started zapping everything.

3. I finished a great book this morning, Fairest by Gail Carson Levine, before Graeme even woke up.

4. Sharing an apple with Graeme, watching him take his absurd,unpracticed, gap-toothed toddler bites. :D

5. Finding an unexpected message inside a box of raisins that read, "Study those you admire." I didn't know raisin boxes had messages on the flaps! How cheery! :)

These are so, so happy~!! :)

And isn't Fairest wonderful? I just finished it, too! I was utterly enchanted~ Have you ever read Ella Enchanted? I grew up on that book...it's exquisite, and I think you'd love it~ <3

I have read Ella Enchanted, the past year or so ago, when I found a copy in a thrift store. I didn't know that the author had other fairy tale retellings until Graeme happened to find them when he was running amok in the children's section. Fairest caught my eye, but now I think I'll have to try them all. :)
