A fresh clean home

The words I love you
My simple things are just that…simple. They are the things that I cherish, thoughts that make me smile; things that make me giddy, things that make me jump for joy at the mere sight of them.
They are often so simple that people over look them or not even notice them at all.
They are often so simple that people over look them or not even notice them at all.
My simple pleasures make me happy. And also these are things that
I am simply grateful for too on this 16/30 Days of Gratitude.
You will find the originator of My Simple Things over at
Christina’s blog~Soul Aperture. Please go over and visit with her...
you will not be disappointed, I promise!
And here's a list of others like me who are sharing their own Simple Things.
I am truly grateful for My Simple List of Things
Side note: I am thankful today that Holly made it back home safely to Louisiana...Praise the Lord!
