Asha,

Your post made me recall that we had this very fancy chalet bird feeder my dad had made, my mother loved it and when I was young she and I would sit there and try to name the birds, sometimes we had to get the book out. Thanks for triggering that warm memory.

Asha, your post, reminds me that you don't have to have "riches" to enjoy

life. My husband, will after he comes home, sit outside, talking or just

been quiet and enjoying our surroundings. Before my stroke, was too busy

with work, getting housework done and clothes for tomorrow work. Now we both

are seeing what is imporant, taking time and enjoying the monment.

Thanks Asha

Yonne

Asha,

U agree it seems I get much more joy out of the simple things

My daughter and 4 yr old grandson came over

His excitement about putting on a life jacket and going swimming how wonderful pure joy if a child
