It's the little things.

Today was not a perfect day. It seemed like the skies ripped open to let out all of the world's water on my little spot of earth. I chose this exact moment to trudge outside with my laundry to the laundromat. My parents are still driving towards Texas and away from me. But, despite these things, today was a good day. Sometimes its just the little things.

Like baking chocolate chip cookies from scratch.

Like fixing homemade chicken noodle soup for your sick husband.

Like washing, drying and folding a wildly out of control pile of laundry.
Like ending the day sitting quietly near the love of your life.
Days like today make me grateful for my husband, having the summers off and for the simple things in life.
