getting a little brighter

3 things that i am grateful for today:

1. Confirmation from the dr that lily's more frequent, but loose cough is a sign that she is getting better and that there is an end in sight

2. I won a $100 gift certificate to PlanterShoes.com. How did they know i am in desperate need of a new pair of shoes?

3. The sun has peeked out over and over again, shining in through the windows, instantly improving my mood immensely!
