God's gifts...

1.  once-black hair, pulled back from her face like a girl's
2.  dusty doggy paws, leaving smears on jeans
3.  warm rolls, barely crusty outside
4.  the outline of veins in cat's ears, revealed by sun
5.  scrubby grass and wildflowers, greens and purples and beiges mingled
6.  misting rain on my face
7.  a hug from one familiar, but hardly known
8.  a man's voice reading the Savior's words with gentle strength
9.  exchanged looks of bewildered amusement
10. wind and sun blowing through leafy trees
11. bare feet slapping on cool wood and linoleum floors
12. old, homely, cozy sweater-- once my mama's, now shared between me and my sister
13. hilarious dog escapades enjoyed with family
14. a cooing little voice
15. cobalt and amethyst flowers winding their vines and curls up a support wire
16. vibrant orange garden anemones
17.  a day that hasn't decided which it is, summer or fall?
18. saying "anemone" over and over and becoming utterly confused about spelling and pronunciation
