Sweet, Simple Things

The sweet, simple things are the real ones, after all." (Laura Ingalls Wilder)

OK, it's been a rough week. You know the old wive's tale about death happening in three's? Well, this was the week. I don't need to elaborate, but it's made my list of sweet, simple things all the more poignant.

Here goes:

1. Going out to the mail box and finding a Mother's Day card from each of my sons.





2. Laughing hysterically with my 2 sisters and my mom.

3. A McDonald's QuarterPounder and French Fries.

4. An unexpected overpaid escrow rebate check. (Flowers, I'm going to buy flowers!)

5. Getting off work an hour early on Friday and taking a nap, covered up with a cozy quilt.





Now I want to know what simple, mundane things happened to you this week?
