Today I am grateful for:

1. Doctors that say "Aha!" when I explain what seems like a baffling mystery. I finally have a course of action to take that will feel purposeful, and hopefully help my little girl.

2. Ada, my girl. My sweet, darling girl. She's my constant reminder that if I persist in happiness, I will find beauty and music in everything.

3. Catching the leak before the whole basement "office" flooded.

4. My ipod. (Cleaning up a flooded storage room would be oh so mundane otherwise!)

5. Knowing that I won't ever pay 100$ for a cut and color again. (at least I think I won't).
