3 Graces From People I Love

1.  Bret and I had a discussion the other day that could have evolved into an argument, and he dropped it before it was able to progress. 

2.  On the way to Syllables, I received a phone call from a friend I hadn't connected with in a while, and Jacob was content to be silent in the back seat during my conversation.  He had been telling me a story and he quite graciously picked up where he left off after my phone call.

3.  Sorting through all of Mom's old Red Cross paperwork (that Dad brought to me "in case I wanted it"), I was reminded of all the times when she nagged me about keeping good records.  Then, I saw it as nagging -- now, I see it as her "having my back."
