A Ray of Sunshine.....

I woke at 6:00 this morning....even a little early for when I was on Fenway's routine. But once I was awake I couldn't go back to sleep so quietly got out of bed. After only a week the first walk past the empty Fenway corner in our bedroom is still giving me damp eyes.

Dressing, brushing my teeth and grabbing my phone I walked out of the apartment and decided to go toward Lake Michigan today. The sky was overcast with a possibility of scattered showers in the forecast. As I approached the bluff I noticed sunshine yellow slicing through the cloud cover over the lake.

Crossing the street I walked right to the edge of the bluff and saw that within 30 seconds the light had changed and I was struck by the sun beams now reaching up toward the roof of the sky. It was beautiful and my morning reminder that there is beauty all around us, if we take the time to just look.

In the week since we kissed Fenway goodbye I have been basically looking down at the pavement as I take this morning walk.....it hurts not to see his silly little butt moving along in front of me. Today was a reminder that I need to look up....so I will.
