“There is only one thing about which I shall have no regrets when my life ends. I have savored to the full all the small, daily joys. The bright sunshine on the breakfast table; the smell of the air at dusk; the sound of the clock ticking; the light rains that start gently after midnight; the hour when the family come home; Sunday-evening tea before the fire! I have never missed one moment of beauty, not ever taken it for granted. Spring, summer, autumn, or winter. I wish I had failed as little in other ways.”

Play, eat, sleep, repeat. These kids definitely savor to the full all the small, daily joys.

Fritz & Google rise & shine
Suzette is a perfect lady, always polite and demure
Max says a good power nap and a few big stretches works wonders
Why do we call him Google? No idea except he’s kind of funny. Check out those teeth!
Bess says just because she’s a year old now doesn’t mean she isn’t funny anymore…

Well Bess, I can’t deny the truth in that. You ARE a funny girl. OK people, you have your mission. What small, daily joys have you appreciated?
Stepping outside in the early morning while the water boils to the sound of spring birds, singing. It’s quite beautiful. I love Agnes’ list. Thank you!

Glad you liked it Eleanor. Your morning sounds beautiful too : )
Chickens are always good for small joys.
Those babies are damn cute.
I may have to give that a try soon…
I love the quiet of morning too.
I like to be up when everyone is still asleep…
Living a life of no regrets is such a blessing. Carpe Diem!
I do my best, but I’m not sure I’ve achieved it yet Tammy.
Carpe Diem to you too
