She is our sunshine!

It's hard to believe that it's been an entire year since our Amelia Jewel was born into our family. She has been a joy, of course! We love her happy face, her laugh, the way she dances, the way she calls ALL dogs "Chester", how much she loves her milk, and how she makes us all so cheerful!

She truly is our sunshine...she makes us happy when skies are gray! Happy birthday, Mia!!!

Ordinary Miracles

This is a song by Sarah McLachlan that I love:

It's not that unusual
When everything is beautiful.
It's just another ordinary miracle today.

The sky knows when it's time to snow,
Don't need to teach a seed to grow.
It's just another ordinary miracle today.

Life is like a gift they say
Wrapped up for you everyday;
Open up and find a way
To give some of your own.

Isn't it remarkable?
Like every time a raindrop falls,
It's just another ordinary miracle today.

Birds in winter have their fling
But always make it home by spring.
It's just another ordinary miracle today.

When you wake up every day
Please don't throw your dreams away;
Hold them close to your heart
'Cause we're all a part
Of the ordinary miracle
Ordinary miracle

Do you want to see a miracle?

It seems so exceptional
That things just work out after all
It's just another ordinary miracle today.

Sun comes up and shines so bright
And disappears again at night.
It's just another ordinary miracle today.
It's just another ordinary miracle today.
