It’s been a rough kinda week, the kind of week when I really really need to take a moment to Celebrate the Small Things (a weekly bloghop hosted by VikLit and others).
I celebrate the fact that I have been given access to so many great books, that I can’t recall anyone telling me I wasn’t allowed to read a book I wanted (and the fact that telling me I can’t do something, unless I understand a good reason behind it, will likely cause me to try even harder to do just that).
I celebrate the amazing posts I’ve seen around the blogosphere about books that have been banned or challenged, and how influential a good book can be on someone — the lasting impact many of these stories have had is awesome.
I celebrate good coffee, good friends, and the return of the Oregon rain (which I love. Perfect weather for a light sweater and light scarf, the refreshing scent of rain and the beauty of the clouds).
What small things do you celebrate today?
Beautiful autumn days that feel like summer, the flexibility to pursue my passion, and that my kids are kind to each other.
