Things that make my Heart Leap! #R2BC


As I sat in my lounge yesterday doing a couple of bits on the laptop I could hear JJ singing to himself in his bedroom and it occurred to me that it is the small things like this that make my heart sing. It doesn't have to be big trips out or spending lots of money, it really is the simple things, the ones you could blink and miss.

*  Like snuggling on the sofa with both my girls New Years Eve and seeing the year in with them as we watched the amazing film - Hidden Figures.

*  Sitting in the prayer centre, enjoying the warm of the radiator with my feet curled under me as I did some bible reading and colouring

*  Cuddling up with Miss M for two nights in my big bed whilst my husband has been away

*  Finding 4 pairs of knickers in the M&S sale that were my size and just £1.99 each. I normally pay £6 each.

*  Enjoying a cup of tea with my friend Annie as we chat away and put the world to rights

* Getting my orthotics for my shoes, which I pray will make a difference to my leg and foot pain

* Having the most amazing doctors surgery and getting a next day appointment when my blood pressure was sky high and it looked like it might put my operation at risk.

*  Spending the day with Krisha and studying the first part of Ecclesiastes. I can't wait for our next session.



*  Sharing school lifts with other families so I don't have to travel back and forward to school ten or more times a week

*  Watching JJ take his oath at Police Cadets last night and being super proud of him. I love that he even asked me for a lint roller and shoe polish, so his uniform could always be smart.

*  Enjoying a waffle and milkshake out with my girls whilst we waited for JJ.

Every day is a gift from God and it is up to me to enjoy it. I choose to make the decision to be positive and to focus on the great things in my life. Yes, there are some things that are not so good right now but I'll pray about those and work on them and it will all turn out fine - you wait and see!
