This morning was full of miracles and fun surprises. First, I woke up late at 6:15, meaning Milla was 20 min late to seminary. The miracle was that I went to bed at 8:45 pm and slept the whole night through. I've been exhausted all week and have had headache after headache. Finally a day with a clear head!
2nd little miracle was our owl egg. Not really a miracle, I guess, but we thought it was cool enough to take a picture of. The pan wasn't quite heated through when I cracked 2 eggs in one after another. We thought it looked cooler when the whites were still clear, but the camera was upstairs and I'm not in that great of shape. ;)
Look closely, what do you see?
After harvesting some broccoli from the garden a few days ago, I discovered a soft green caterpillar climbing up one of the stems. So cute! I trimmed off the part he was on and put it in a jar, added some sticks and closed it off with some cheese cloth. Expecting the worst when I checked it a day or two later (I've seen many dead bugs in jars in my days), I was thrilled to see that the caterpillar had instead climbed onto one of the sticks and made himself a little chrysalis. Miracle #3! I felt like a little kid again, wanting to tell everyone I saw today about my little caterpillar. Ahh, life. Amazing.
I love your morning of simple pleasures :). I've been worried about you ever since hearing about your vertigo incident. I am so happy that you got some good sleep! Many loves...
