special delivery

Thank you Lord for waking me up early enough that I was a witness to the stunning welcome You painted for this day. 

Thank you Lord for this lone Crocus in my front flower bed. That spot is in sore need of weeding and trimming, but when I took the time to walk over to it and stand for a moment, there was no missing this brave little beauty.

 Thank you Lord for things that trigger sweet memories from childhood. 

My grandma kept orange slices and green spearmint leaves to share when we visited. I went into Weaver's this afternoon to buy apples. These were a bonus find.

Slowing down, looking at my surroundings, 

has rewarded me with a day full of special deliveries.

I'm so thankful I didn't rush through the last 12 hours.
