My morning
Most mornings begin with a little groaning and slow moving these days. But once I get out of bed, I generally enjoy mornings. Especially when the sun is shining. This morning I noticed the beauty in the mundane, everyday bits of life. Making lunches for the 3 who leave the house each day; we go through a lot of bread!

She loves to eat the grass, especially when I mow and the sweet fresh stems get dropped. As I watched the dog I saw the lilacs are in full bloom. So pretty, and they smell so good! Breakfast and some reading awaiting me along with grading. I like to grade the girls' books in the morning while it is still quiet and my mind is awake and working.
