You guys, you guys are amazing. Right after I posted yesterday's post I expected at least one comment like, "shut up, stop whining my g-d you are a whiner" and no, not a one. All I got was support and love and understanding.
But really, I have been whining a little too much lately. I have so much to be happy about. Like my good friend Tracey, I have been finding the glass half empty lately. This is going to change, today.
The incomparable Schmutzie started Grace in Small Things a few years ago and I didn't participate. Because I wasn't in the right frame of mind. But now I am. I need to do this. I need to find Grace.
And you, my amazing readers, are my very first entry, on my very first day.
1. Amazing blog readers who leave amazing comments.
2. The smell of coffee in the morning.
3. Weekend mornings where Doug lets me sleep in.
4. A green smiley face on Michael's kindergarten behavior chart.
5. The smell of a Fall morning.

Love this! and yeah…BEEN THERE!
Woot! So happy you’re doing this too!
Oh! I don’t know what you were complaining about yesterday : ) I would have said something nice and encouraging though for sure!
Me too about the coffee. Isn’t that the best smell to wake up to? I can’t figure out how to program our coffee maker though… Darn it! : )
I need to do this too.
I did it in Tracey’s comments. But it took everything in me to think of five things today. It shouldn’t be that hard.
I just read your previous post. Hugs friend.
Yes, I’ve been trying to do this mentally too. Maybe it’s time to actually write it down.
I was doing GiST for a while. It slowly faded. I really need to start it up again. It really does help to sit down and just spend a little time thinking of little happy things.
