A Grateful Heart

I have been too busy living My Sacred Life to post about that very sacred life; my little one started kindergarten this morning and I'm taking time to rest in that very big concept as it sinks in (she said, wiping away a tear.) So, my offering today is this image, which I cut out of an old calendar years ago and posted in my bedroom in the old house so that it was the first thing that I saw every morning for a year. I stumbled across it and wanted to share this little bit of My Sacred Life. With a grateful heart for all of you holding the space for this project and our lives...

What makes your heart swell with gratitude?

What a wonderful thing to have seen every morning for a year. Put a smile on my face too! How perfect too to be too be busy LIVING your sacred life to blog about it!! :)

What makes my heart swell with gratitude at the moment is the warm response I have received to my Prayer for Help post. It has been so heart warming.
Thank you so much for your support today. I smiled with gratitude when I read the bit about "they have your back too !"

Warm love to you,
Annie

Deb--this is a great post! Love that sentiment.

Today, I'm grateful that I have no kindergarten-age daughter. Not that I did not love it at the time, only that I have reached the point in my life where my kids are more my friends than quite as dependent as they once were. My four daughters are all healthy, engaged in the discovery of common sense (that's a better way to put it than, "ain't got a lick of it", right?), and powerfully aware that they have all the choices in the world open to them.

Thanks for this memory-tugging post, Deb.

Thanks for visiting earlier ..
I have been found guilty of neglecting this sacred life project, not been able to find time to fit this in my normal blogging schedule.

gratitude and content are something which would make world such a nice place to live in, isn't it

pen pals really ? :)

As for me...grateful for being able to think of all of you guys out there living your lives with the best of intentions and just knowing I am part of this.

I love that! With a child in kindergarten, you are mercifully excused from not blogging about your sacred life every day. But thanks for this one. It's great.
