this photo makes me happy. it also encourages me to continue working on a spirit of gratitude. it's so easy to focus on the negative and lose contentment. someone else's grass will always be greener, bigger, prettier more together, less of a mess, more disciplined, less lazy, wealthier, in better shape - i'll stop here because this list is long. but when i see this photo of my son and husband, i'm reminded that God has placed some amazingly green grass in my very own yard. today i choose to be thankful for what he's given me...his word, a healthy child, a husband who cleans the house, a healthy marriage strengthened (not shattered) by hard times, a soft bed, loving parents, siblings and in-laws...and the most amazing friends a girl could pray for. oh and four days in destin with a few of them - starting tomorrow.
Fine, indeed. In this case - it's encouraged to judge a book by it's cover. Penguin hardbacks make classic literature oh-so-cool with their collection of newly designed, modern covers - putting a pretty face on timeless tales, like Great Expectations, Sense and Sensibility and A Tale of Two Cities. Displayed on the living room console table or your daughter's book shelf, you'll have everyone thinking you traded in your (slightly alarming) Housewives' addiction for some light literature. Smarty pants.
