Small Things
I’m frequently reminded that it’s the very small things that are sometimes the most wonderful.
It got pretty chilly here overnight last night, down to 34. For North Carolina this is serious business. This morning I was getting ready to go to work and asked Jake if he could start my car for me when he went out to start his, and he did. As we were both getting ready to leave he handed me his coat, since mine was in the car. I said, “What about you, won’t you be cold?” And he told me to take it, because the jeep was all warmed up and he’d be fine.
It’s a small thing, but those are what make the bigger picture so beautiful sometimes.

Well…Like I said I have a 30-45 min drive in so the jeep does warm up..With you short drive drive to work there’s no sense in being cold the whole way there :-*

it’s the small things, when you think about them at bad times that make it easier to deal with the big bad things!!! You will ALWAYS remember when he does something small and loving and considerate for you. Like Monday when I got home from the hospital, daddy went out and got me a single peach colored rose just to welcome me home!!! AND THIS AFTER 22 YEARS TOGETHER!!!!!Amazing huh?
