it's the little things:: Maryland edition!

Silas' blue eyes. I was certain that he'd have brown eyes like I do, but was hoping for blue or green. His sweet blue eyes get me every time.

Seeing my siblings with my son. Nothing like it.

I know everyone LOOOVES fall. But there's just something extra special about it when you've lived in warm climates for the past three years!

My baby sister Tori called me this morning and asked what she could bring me from Starbucks. Chatting with her over a cinnamon dolce latte was the perfect way to start the day.

Having Chris in the same time zone and able to chat and text on the phone while he's away is such a blessing. I'm thankful that he's not on the other side of the world with limited communication like his two deployments in Hawaii.

Lots of little and big blessings this week. What are yours??
