* Harriet did not wake up when David and the dogs tromped down the stairs like she usually does.
* because of the above, 30 extra minutes of sleep
* carnation instant breakfast and the money to buy it (that stuff is SO expensive and it's the ONLY thing my kids will eat/drink for breakfast)
* a daughter who loves PE - the exact opposite of me
* a school bus that comes within 20 feet of my mud-room door to pick up Grace so that we can wait for it inside the house
* no rain this morning after 3 straight days of it
* fresh exciting e-mail from a good friend on the computer when I woke up (instead of things to do from work or church)
* my clean dining room and kitchen (how long will it last? this is day 3!)
* our old, beautiful, silly dogs - Velvet and Shadow always wake up with energy to play even though they are 10 and 8 years old. They are ETERNALLY patient with our kids and completely loyal and sweet. (this one isn't so small, but extremely significant)
(poor Velvet...yes, she has a balloon tied to her collar...ask Grace)
