hearts of thankfulness

Thurdsay, we were driving to a friend's house for dinner.

In the back I hear Lily, "Mama, please answer me!"

me: "Sorry. I didn't know you were talking to me"

Lily: "Great job turning your wipers on" (it was raining)

me: "oh thanks Lil".

Eloise: "Ya, and thanks for being so safe while you drive us".

I was beaming. Even though they were two very insignificant compliments, they were compliments. And that is a sign, to me, of gratitude and I love it.

They sound hugely significant to me. In fact, if I ever have to fill out a resumé again I think I will add: 1. Safe Driver 2. Turns on wipers when it's raining

So sweet. Isn't it funny how much their little compliments can warm your heart?

Also, I read your blog through my google reader, so I don't always get to see your lovely blog design, but I did today, and man, I love it!! Those colors on the header are fantastic!
