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.

Grateful #1 - A red scarf

A few weeks ago, I woke up freezing.  I texted my mom begging for her to knit me a scarf.  She said she would, but that it was going to take a while.  After admitting to being a baby now that I live in GA and can't handle the cold, I said it was ok, I just wanted a scarf right then.  A few days later, I got a package in the mail with this red scarf she bought, and a note that said this should keep me warm in the meantime, until she can make me one.  It's currently below freezing and I put my red scarf on to walk my dog, grateful for my mom and for it the whole time.
