#456  beautiful spring day with lots of sunshine, a few whispy clouds, a gentle breeze and no humidity

#457  grilling steak for dinner

#458  hearing baby birds chirp

#459  planting new flowers

#460  smelling gardenia flowers outside our front door and in our kitchen.  That fragrance almost brings tears to my eyes it’s so beautiful.  It was the fragrance I smelled as I held the bouquet on our wedding day.  The smell is like breathing in God’s sweetness and goodness.
