Intentional Gratefulness v. 3

The month of June has been good to me, there are seemingly endless things to be grateful for, and I feel particularly blessed, in many ways and by many people. I thought today was a good day to share some of those things here.
I'm grateful for ...
A faraway BFF (Looking at you Holly) who patiently puts up with phone tag, is my voice of reason, who sends me encouraging and uplifting letters, listens as I talk in circles through my little daily dramas, and in general makes my life a million times better because she's in it.
A lovely librarian friend (Linds!) who is endlessly supportive and thoughtful in helping a non-networker network. 
Enjoying lots of quality time and making multiple fond memories with my sister, niece and nephew. It's been a month of swimming, sailing, sunshine, perfect popcorn-popping tutorials, pancakes, pedicures, photo-taking, laughter, and fun, and I'm glad that I had the time and the lack of distractions to take it all in.
Last, but certainly not least is the fact that in FIVE SHORT DAYS I will be reunited with the loves of my heart in Switzerland. So soon!!!!! Insert squeals and crazy happy dances here.
