Days, months, weeks, and sometimes even years - they all go by us. If we're lucky, we tame them long enough to feel like we were not just standing there as they went by; sometimes we actually feel present in them. But not enough. Too many amazing and wonderful things go by without so much as a nod or moment of appreciation. Because life happens. Because we get busy. Because we just keep going. This blog is a way to stop all of that spinning and pause some of those quiet, simple little moments that make us smile. Being grateful is not something that we just are - being grateful is something we should actively do. This is two friends living many, many miles apart, sharing their tiny little moments of gratitude in pictures with each other and with the world.

Chance Encounters



I had a chance encounter about 2 years ago with a woman, whom I befriended.  This woman added me to an online group of women who have opened up my world to ideologies and theories, mostly geared towards health and parenting, which I hadn’t ever previously considered.   I began to study.  I began to learn.  I also gained the most amazing friends a woman could ask for.


I am grateful for this chance encounter, which, in addition to introducing me to many new, great friendships, empowered me to take my health into my own hands.  I am a better mom for it and a better person on account of this additional love and support in my life. Plus, my cabinets look a lot prettier around the holidays :)
