That is a good goal, Meredith. It's something I've struggled with as well.

I'm trying to practice not forming opinions too quickly. It seems so simple — and it is — but still I struggle sometimes. It is a tiny, silent step I take to make myself more open. I have to renew the commitment each day, however, because I can — and do — sometimes forget.

Thanks for the comment on the new design. I'm interested in what everyone thinks of it.

Yes, I love those fall walks. We haven't had enough of them this year, with all of this weather we've been having.

Another great post Kerri. The little things in life make me smile. Like coming home to see my kittens, reading a good book and taking a walk in the fall weather. It's so easy to get caught up in work and rushing from meeting to meeting. It's always good to take a step back and remember what's truly important.

I love the new site design! The white background is MUCH easier to read. Lovely.

That seems like a pretty big thing, Jenn!

The biggest "little thing" I do in my life is hold babies and play with kids who are patients at Children's Hospital. I do this once a week, and it puts everything into perspective.

It's funny, Mary, I do remember our wedding, of course, and other big family get togethers, but one day this year I realized I couldn't remember many of my now deceased beloved relatives being at those functions. It was the one on one times, the small moments in life I treasure the most.

Would have no idea, Kathy!
And thank you.

Kim,
My mom always used to tell me not to wish my life away. It wasn't until I started putting on the years that I really got what she meant. Those toddler years can be trying, I'm sure, but one day (especially when you're dealing with teenagers!) that you might wish them back.
Treasure those little things!
