A new series… because gratitude is worth cultivating.

The kind lady at Publix who followed me out with a cart full of my groceries with the car seat filling the one I pushed

Time with each of my daughters individually

The ‘at least for 30 seconds a day’ hug between me and John

That I’m making double the milk Julia will ever need

Julia smiling when I smile at her

Watching Anna enjoy taking care of her baby dolls — burping, feeding, rocking, swaddling

Friends who ask how they can pray for me

Anna forming sentences now in the most adorable way

Days when Julia takes more than one good, long nap (day sleep has been challenging)

The familiarity that breeds more open-handedness with a second baby
