10 Bits of Magic

Mondays are a little rough around here these days. Getting back into the weekly routine seems to be a painful transition for Mom and kids alike. So I thought it would be nice to start the week remembering some magical things and moments from the week before, remembering that grace and wonder abound if I’m willing to see it:

1.  Youngest learning to pronounce the word "lunch" perfectly
2.  Fresh basil
3.  Hunting for arrowheads with my husband and kids
4.  Male black-winged damselfly
5.  The smile on Middle's face when she got baptized
6.  Hugs from new friends
7.  The wet, green color of the sky before a thunderstorm
8.  White hair
9.  The way Oldest drapes his arm around my shoulders
10. The sound of a late-summer night in Missouri

What bits of magic did you see or experience last week?
