For lack of attention, a thousand forms of loveliness elude us every day. -- Evelyn Underhill

Chasing the loveliness like a child chasing a kite:

967. Beach-side birthday celebrations.
968. Salt air
969. Sand.
970. Husband who says, "Go! Enjoy! Soak it all in!"
971. A joy shared IS a joy doubled.
972. Ending the day with a blue slushie, because it was just that kind of day.
973. Children pretending to be in Narnia.
974. Corn and black bean salsa.
975. Getting the student loan forms submitted.
976. Zinnias.
977. Exciting news about a dear friend.
978. Second interviews.
979. Sunday morning breakfast on the deck.
980. Family gatherings in the park.
981. Gift from Ethel that makes me laugh harder than I have in years.
982. Sitting poolside with the beloved Swede until the bats come out at night,
983. This: "God gives, God takes. God's name be ever blessed." Job 1:21, The Message
