355. truthful and hard words
356. meeting new people
357. safe place to share concerns
358. trials that other people I love are facing and feeling helpless to help them...and being able to say "I know God is big enough for that trial in their life even though I'm not" ( I have a "savior" complex I know)
359. saying "no" to another commitment when I know it's not the right thing
360. birds cheeping as I get to school in the a.m.
361. tulips...hello spring loveliness!

366. God's faithfulness...day after day after day...
367. longtime friends
368. hanging out with people that makes you feel like you're on a mini vacation
369. the complexity of coffee (we went on a tour of "The Roasterie" here in KC last weekend...and let me tell you, even if you don't love coffee, you would have to appreciate coffee a little bit more after this tour. It was so cool!) 
370. less mental clutter in my life (taking a break from facebook and the many blogs I read...one reason why it's taken me so long to update my blog)
371. having more time for meaningful reading and thoughts for God
372. having a student say "I wanted my mom to fix my hair like yours today Mrs. G"

376. the grace of staying home
