24) Sleeping cats
25) Silence
26) This quote:
“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have made their way out of the depths…Beautiful people do not just happen.” -Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
27) Rescue inhalers (tons of cleaning + dust allergies = not fun!)
28) Homemade garlic rolls
29) And the therapy of baking them by hand
30) And the fact they came out really well even though I put in a few wrong ingredients (oops)
31) Friends who listen and help me feel a little less alone
32) A.A. Milne’s The Adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh
33) And the experience of reading it to my little boy (which was the highlight of the day for both of us)
34) Friends who connect their friends who can help each other out
35) Not having to act like everything is okay… at least to God (who knows that anyway)
