So many beautiful reasons to be happy

This week I'm thankful for:

books
parents who love one another even more after almost 26 years
fall weather
smiles
the story of Esther
Sum Xu (Chinese for "pine rat" or squirrel) - the baby squirrel in our care
the delicious fragrance of sweet olive trees that leave the whole yard smelling like autumn
handwritten letters
sheet music (and the Public Domain)

  1. The song "Flow Gently Sweet Afton" was written by Jonathan Edwards Spilman from the Robert Burns Poem. I wrote a biography of his daughter, Byrd Spilman Dewey titled "Pioneering Palm Beach: The Deweys and the South Florida Frontier"
