It's the simple things

Finding joy in the simple things:


Coming downstairs weekend mornings and just sitting and drinking coffee with my roommates.


Days when the sun shines so bright you seriously have to believe that everything is right in the world


Rainy days that give me the perfect excuse to curl up with a good book and listen to the storm role in


Watching someone bow their head in prayer before eating a meal


Going for a run and enjoying the feeling of my legs pounding the pavement


Having friends in my life that I have over 15 years of memories with


Designs in my latte foam


Going to a rodeo and wearing cowboy boots and being thankful for being from the South


Living in the city


Being only hours from the country


Laughter that makes your stomach hurt and tears stream down your face


Being able to look at an old friend and one glance meaning a thousand words


Inside jokes


Really good ice cream


Despite age, being united with others over one simple thing: Georgia Football


Pottery Barn & Anthropology magazines just because of their creative layout


Tacos


Random moments in the day when for no particular reason you just feel the Lord near


Days where the whole family is back under one roof


Driving in the country and catching a glimpse of the stars


Getting lost in a good book


Songs that bring back floods of memories


Driving with the windows down


Sitting on the deck with friends on summer evenings


and.....American Flag Running shorts.
