Gift #92- Real Life

 You are seeing it right.  That is a boat in our dining room.

Because why not have a boat in your dining room?

 And this is a hot wheels track being hung precariously from the curtain rod
that is hung precariously.


This is a spaghetti noodle on our wall in the kitchen.  Jack heard that the best way to test spaghetti noodles for doneness is  to throw them against the wall to see if they stick.  This one is obviously done.  This picture was taken a few weeks ago.  The noodle may or may not still be sticking to the wall. 

So you may be wondering how all of these things can be considered gifts.  I admit that it is kind of a stretch to call them such.  But they are real signs of real life going on all around me.  Life to be loved and lived and devoured one flying noodle at a time.  And that is the gift.
