Daily Grace

A friend of mine, Tuhina, has been posting 5 things every day she is thankful for--little doses of grace that have appeared in her life, and it has been so much fun to read--to see all the little things we have to be thankful for if we just open our eyes! I probably won't have the discipline to do this every day (although this really could be a good Lenten discipline to practice...I'll have to think about it) but for today, here are 5 little glimpses of grace I've seen today.

• Getting to fall asleep at 9:30 last night and wake up wide awake at 6:30 this morning to start my day.
• My project group being willing to help me out with my portion of the project we are presenting on Wednesday (topic: white privilege...fascinating stuff!)
• A fabulous coffee date with Chap, the prof I work for, who actually thought my idea for the book I want to write was great and he wants me to go for it, and said is willing to help!
  
• Getting to email and share pictures from my final dress fitting with friends--can't show them to the one I want to the most, but I can show them to girl friends!
  
• Lunch at Panera while I graded project proposals--my favorite, Fuji Apple Chicken Salad--yum!
