I am grateful for every minute with Farley, who turned 7 today.

I am grateful for the sight of Coop and Farl having a fun time together playing with the basketball that was Coop’s consolation big brother gift this morning before school.

I am grateful for a plethora of unrelenting to-do list items crossed out.

I am grateful for time in the studio, then the gym.

I am grateful for the opening of presents, the eating of pizza, the beating of a piñata, and casual time spent with some neighbours and friends for Farley’s family birthday festivities tonight.

I am grateful for time spent chillin’ in the hillbilly hot tub tonight with Julie.
