"I do believe in an everyday sort of magic...the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we're alone." Charles de Lint

Delight!

I turned 67 today....and it was a delight from beginning to end. 
I got several lovely cards...texts...emails...and Facebook wishes from friends and family.
I feel blessed!


My sister gave me new socks....and Clarke made me a new hat! I needed it today!


I spent all day with this delightful guy and I will see both boys early next week.


I was tickled to start my day a delightful Dotty post about another serendipitous moment in her joy journal. I was over the moon with delight at her connections! You can read Dotty's post here.

      Thanks Cherie! Yes...that card is awesome! My sister in law has a good sense of humor. I wore my socks all day today! Thank goodness I didn't need the hat.
