Coffee

I find that I look forward to mornings because I am madly in love with coffee. I drink it most of the day, but there is something about that first cup that just makes everything in your body go, "ahhhhh." I drink half-caf or decaf most days, so it's not the caffeine. I just love the experience of coffee; the smell, the taste, the mixing in milk and sugar (Stevia, to be specific). I know I'm insane, but it makes me happy.

As you may know, I nanny a nearly 15 month old little girl. Last night her parents had their anniversary dinner, so I stayed the night. Waking up, the sun was rising, the snow/ice from yesterday was just starting to melt, the mist was in the air and they have a table on their patio facing the sunrise. I stood at the window thinking about how great it'll be in summer when I can sit out there during her naps and enjoy the fresh air, sipping yummy coffee and wondering how on earth I am this blessed :)
