Simple Celebrations

I sit here this morning, thinking of the events from this past week that were noteworthy enough to write about in this celebration post.  There is nothing BIG that comes to mind, so instead I will write small and simple today:

This week, I celebrate:
   * Cinnamon
   * New pens
   * Figuring out my lesson plans
   * An offer of strawberries
   * Water
   * After work walks
   * Kids helping others
   * Student discussions
   * Falling leaves
   * Apple scented candles
   * Friendship

The lesson? Big or small, all celebrations count.

  2. Yes, the big and small, all celebrations count. This is why I write every Saturday even though sometimes I don't know how to write about my week or what exactly to celebrate. From your list the cinnamon, strawberries and apple scented candles stand out the most.

  3. Absolutely the big and small are always worth celebrating. I typically love the smaller celebrations more. My favorite is cinnamon, new pens and friendships.
