Reasons to Praise

My mom called me this evening.  We are getting together for dinner with my folks, and my sister and her family in a few days, and she wanted to talk a little about logistics.  But the first thing she said to me when I answered was, “Have you noticed the sunset?” 

It was beautiful.  Orange and coral and lavender and blue and our favorite ~ sky blue pink.  So I walked out on the porch to get a better look while I chatted with her.  For a minute I wanted to call my husband or one of my kids to come enjoy it with me ~ a beautiful sunset is better shared, after all ~ but then I realized I was sharing it with someone.

Thanks for calling, Mom.

A beautiful sunset has put me in a praisin’ mood.  Join me won’t you?
