We came back home from a lovely weekend by the ocean at my Dad’s to see a Painted Turtle laying her eggs in our front lawn. (just skip ahead to about 1min 20 sec. to see her actually laying an egg)
I’m sure it seemed like a very quite spot when she started… little did she know It was really cool to watch this little piece of nature in action with the kids.
They have played so well all morning. What a blessing. Check out little -R in the background. He is so psyched to have a “weapon” (it’s a lego) my boys
I walked to the mailbox this morning admiring all the green leafing out from the trees opened the box and pulled out a catalog, electric bill, a toy store postcard, and a card hand addressed to Mr & Mrs. Kevin _________. I knew immediately from the handwriting who it was from, I remembered what day tommorrow is, and immediately smiled with a warm feeling inside.
I have an aunt who for the past 8 years has sent me a card on my anniversary. It is such a small act, but one that really stands out. Every year she remembers,she validates how important marriage/my marriage is.
It is such a great reminder of what little kindnesses do for others.
