Little things and one big thing
Little things that have made me happy:
1. Having a good friend say that our house is always welcoming and comfortable.
2. Worshipping at a new church with members of the call committee and having another member insert "God" for "He" without missing a beat.
3. Playing in the snow with the cats.
4. Having a really bad, very lonely day and being able to pick myself back up. Maybe I really will get better.
The big one:
It's approaching the first anniversary of my mother-in-law's death. I can barely remember what it was like to actually have her around. It seems impossible that we were ever that blessed and that the background pain of her absence wasn't part of my life.
