it's the little things

today i am beginning a journey of trying to be more present and not focusing so much on the past or the future.

i think i'll begin by finding the joy in the little things:

~fresh apples and natural peanut butter

~waking up to the sounds of falling rain outside my window
~noticing the beauty in the ordinary

~David coming home to me with a cup of hot apple cider, my favorite cold weather treat
~making pizza dough from scratch


...it's the little things.


what are you noticing and feeling more present in the moment in?

How my dog continues to look at me in the most exciting and loving way every day that I come home from work. Such a blessing to see that his love for me never fades! Consistency is so beautiful.

oh, and having the headphones today. I'm listening to music which I only get to do on my radio in my car. Pandora is such a beautiful treat to the ordinary life.
